8.5.7 Using the YaST Partitioner
With the expert partitioner, shown in Figure 8.6, "The YaST Partitioner" (page 155),
manually modify the partitioning of one or several hard disks. Partitions can be added,
deleted, resized, and edited. Also access the soft RAID, EVMS, and LVM configuration
from this YaST module.
WARNING: Repartitioning the Running System
Although it is possible to repartition your system while it is running, the risk
of making a mistake that causes data loss is very high. Try to avoid repartitioning
your installed system and always do a complete backup of your data before
attempting to do so.

TIP: IBM System z: Device Names
IBM System z recognize only DASD and SCSI hard disks. IDE hard disks are not
supported. This is why these devices appear in the partition table as dasda or
sda for the first recognized device.
