Fix a problem

	I have a /dev/sda5 that has all my /home/karl things on it 
and it is 85% full. I was going to go over the size if I get a 
new system to d/l or other such things.

	So I made /dev/sda12 twice as large and the used dd to put 
/dev/sda5 on /dev/sda12. It did but, it made /dev/sda12 
smaller, in fact the same size as /dev/sda5.

I had to go back to my Live/CD and make /dev/sda12 a tiny bit 
smaller with the Partioner and then it shows up being much 
larger at last.

	So now it shows the large size of /dev/sda12 with $df -h as 
twice as large as /dev/sda5 and all is well.

	You don't care? I do.
