[COLUG] Partitioning Hard Drive

[Mark Erbaugh]

When I first installed Ubuntu Dapper on my notebook computer, I created
a small partition for / and a large partition for /home. I am now close
to filling my / partition and there is lots of space left on the /home
partition.

Is there an easy way to increase or free up space on the / partition?
Since I am the only user on the notebook, if I had to do over, I don't
think I would create two partitions. Is that appropriate?
