VMware安装linux的时候默认分配的空间是4GB,可能会不够,这个时候可以通过增加一块虚拟硬盘,将/usr或其他内容拷贝过去解决这个问题:
创建虚拟硬盘
1、关闭VM中正在运行的虚拟系统;
2、在虚拟系统名称上点右键-》Virtual Machine Settings;
3、在Hardware页点“Add”-》Add a hard disk-》Create a new virtual disk-》SCSI(recommended)-》分配空间大小-》OK;
4、可以看见Hardware中出现了一块新的硬盘Hard Disk 2。
对虚拟硬盘进行分区和格式化(转载自bixuan)
[root@cncmail data1]# fdisk -l ## 这里是查看目前系统上有几块硬盘
Disk /dev/sda: 36.4 GB, 36401479680 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4425 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 255 2048256 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 256 1530 10241437+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 4296 4425 1044225 82 Linux swap
/dev/sda4 1531 4295 22209862+ f Win95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/sda5 1531 2805 10241406 83 Linux
/dev/sda6 2806 4295 11968393+ 83 Linux
Partition table entries are not in disk order
Disk /dev/sdb: 36.7 GB, 36703918080 bytes ## 这里发现/dev/sdb,容量36.7G,切未被分区
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4462 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk /dev/sdc doesn't contain a valid partition table
[root@linux root]# fdisk /dev/sdb ## 接下去就对/dev/sdb分区进行分区
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 4462.
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)
Command (m for help): m
Command action
a toggle a bootable flag
b edit bsd disklabel
c toggle the dos compatibility flag
d delete a partition
l list known partition types
m print this menu
n add a new partition
o create a new empty DOS partition table
p print the partition table
q quit without saving changes
s create a new empty Sun disklabel
t change a partition's system id
u change display/entry units
v verify the partition table
w write table to disk and exit
x extra functionality (experts only)
Command (m for help): p ## 打印出目前该硬盘下的分区列表

Command (m for help): n ## 增加一个分区
Command action

p primary partition (1-4)
## 因为通常选择主分区,所以这里打一个p
p
Partition number (1-4): 1 ## 这里因为是第一个分却,所以只选择1,如果是第二个分区,则选择2,依次类推
First cylinder (1-4462, default 1): ## 新分区起始的磁盘块数
Using default value 1
Last cylinder or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK (1-4462, default 4462): 如果要分区10G,这里可以直接输入:+10240M,因为这里要全部使用硬盘空间,则用默认
Using default value 4462
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/sdb: 36.7 GB, 36703918080 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4462 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 1 4462 35840983+ 83 Linux
## 这里第一个分区已经分好了,接下去得把这个分区写入硬盘,用w
Command (m for help): w
The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
Syncing disks.
下面的工作就是对该硬盘进行格式,我这里是格式化成ext3
[root@linux root]# mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1 (这里原来的命令是:mke2fs -j /dev/sdb1,试了一下不成 功,改了)
mke2fs 1.32 (09-Nov-2002)

检查一下,是否已经格式好
[root@linux root]# fdisk -l

挂载虚拟硬盘
分区分好,也格式化好了,下面就是挂载
我把/dev/sdb1挂载到/data1下
[root@linux root]# mkdir /data1 ## 首先建立挂载的目录data1
[root@linux root]# mount /dev/sdb1 /data1 ##将sdb1挂载到data1
重启系统之后,查看是否挂载成功:
[root@linux data1]# df -h
文件系统 容量 已用 可用 已用% 挂载点
/dev/sda1 2.0G 454M 1.4G 25% /
/dev/sda6 12G 53M 11G 1% /bak
/dev/sdb1 34G 33M 32G 1% /data1
none 250M 0 250M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda2 9.7G 1.5G 7.7G 17% /usr
/dev/sda5 9.7G 8.6G 559M 95% /var
这里看到/dev/sda6 12G 53M 11G 1% /bak
说明已经挂载成功了。到根目录“/”下可以查看到这个挂载好的data1。
转移数据
其实一直做到这里都还只是准备工作,如果根分区下的数据不转移到这个虚拟硬盘中的话,还是会提示空间不足。下面是将/usr全部转移到虚拟硬盘中的过程(参考Linux人生的《Linux系统精华之一——挂载》),同样也可以转移其他目录:
1、将/usr中的全部数据拷贝到data1(可以用mv一个一个拷贝,也可以用tar压缩之后一次拷贝,具体参见这两个命令的man)
2、清空usr目录:
# rm -r /usr
# mkdir /usr
3、卸载刚才挂上的虚拟硬盘,重新将它挂载到usr目录:
# umount /dev/sdb1 /data1
# mount /dev/sdb1 /usr
4、# vi /etc/fstab ## 用vi修改/etc/fstab,使系统启动就可以自动挂载
(点击“i”进入插入模式对文本内容进行修改,改好后点“Esc”,输入冒号“:”进入命令行模式,输入wq保存退出,具体操作可以参考vi常用指令)
在内容中加上一行:
/dev/sdb1 /usr ext3 defaults 1 2
4、Ok,重新启动之后,可以查看现在的硬盘使用情况了:
# df -h
文件系统 容量 已用 可用 已用% 挂载点
/dev/sda2 3.6G 1.3G 2.4G 35% /
udev 125M 124K 125M 1% /dev
/dev/sdb1 4.0G 2.3G 1.6G 60% /usr
根分区的“已用%”从99%降到了35%,哈哈,大功告成,可以继续做其他的事情了。不过这次添加的虚拟硬盘还是比较小,完全可以在添加的时候设得大一点的。美中不足。
