</div>Yes, You can increase the size of root partition, provided you have<br>
unallocated space / free space in your hard disk.<br>
Please read man pages/ info pages of the following commands.<br>
1. man parted<br>
2. man fdisk<br>
<br>
<br>
People normally create swap file when they need more swap space.<br>
You can get help from this man pages,<br>
1. man mkswap<br>
2. man swapon<br>
3. man swapoff<br>
<br>
Swap file will be slower when it is compared with the access time of swap partition.<br>
<br>
The above commands request you to back up current data of your hard disk.<br>
So use at your own risks.<br>

</div>Another way to increase partition i.e. volume size is to use LVM tools<br>
Related command:<br>
lvm lvmchange lvmdiskscan lvmsadc lvmsar lvm.static<br>
<br>
LVM is smart way to mange your disk's space. You will like it.<br>
<br>
But read the documents/man pages first, it will accelerate your learning curve.<br>
