increasing the size of the root partition

[gerry at swift.cs.tcd.ie]

I would like to increase the /, /usr & /var partitions on our V4.0 system.
The obvious way to do this, it seems to me, is to boot from the standalone tape
and dump the file systems out, change the partitions sizes and then restore. Are
there any possible problems that I am overlooking?
