ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Install/FIPS15.ZIP is a DOS hosted
utility for resizing DOS FAT partitions.

I have approved the post this message references since there are few OS/2
hosted freeware or shareware solutions for repartioning without losing data.
In fact I am not aware of any non-commercial OS/2 hosted utilities that
defragment FAT partitions or allow resizing FAT drive partitions, and I check
HOBBES, CDROM, and LEO file lists fairly frequently. This is a very limited
exception to the "OS/2 only" rule.
