But first I would backup your partition - either to another harddisk, or
burn it to CD. You can use 'dd' to copy a partition image 1:1. Or you can
use cat, gzip and cdrecord in a pipe to burn the partition compressed to cd
(that way at least 1 GB will fit on one CD). Just be sure to note the size
of your original partition (use pdisk -l). Ask me if you don't understand
the details. Of course it's a problem if you only have the booting cd,
there won't be cdrecord on it..
