resize2fs - ext2 file system resizer
resize2fs 是 ext2 文件系统大小调整工具
可以扩大 可以缩小原ext2分区（当然 ext3只是多了 Journal的ext2 也可以）
需要注意的是 增大的话
起始柱面不能变
步骤就是：
先fdisk 调整分区
所谓调整 也就是删了相关的分区 再重建分区
最后在分区上再用 resize2fs 调整文件系统大小
所以一个概念 或者说对照就是
文件系统(file system)是在分区(Partition)基础上的

Summary
: Utilities for managing the second extended (ext2) filesystem.
Description :
The e2fsprogs package contains a number of utilities for creating,
checking, modifying, and correcting any inconsistencies in second
extended (ext2) filesystems. E2fsprogs contains e2fsck (used to
repair filesystem inconsistencies after an unclean shutdown), mke2fs
(used to initialize a partition to contain an empty ext2 filesystem),
debugfs (used to examine the internal structure of a filesystem, to
manually repair a corrupted filesystem, or to create test cases for
e2fsck), tune2fs (used to modify filesystem parameters), and most of
the other core ext2fs filesystem utilities.
You should install the e2fsprogs package if you need to manage the
performance of an ext2 filesystem.

# fdisk /dev/sdb
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 8924.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

{e2fsck -f /dev/sdb2 运行后提示要修复 ....Fix <y>,那么 就加上参数 -y ;e2fsck -y -f /dev/sdb2}

The filesystem on /dev/sdb2 is now 1835008 blocks long.
然后 mount 上 ls 一下 就发现 原来 sdb2 的区大了 还有 sdb3 的东西也在
{上述说 sdb3的东西还在 ，我没有试验出来， sdb2 的东西就还在！(也就是说更改后分区的（cylinders ）柱面start 值不变的，那么数据还是可以存在)！
