To expand filesystem xxx
make sure there is some space immediately
after the partition (or use lvm).
unmount /xxx
Recreate the partition table entry with
fdisk or ddruid
using the same starting address and
the new size.
Then use the command
resize2fs /xxx
For safety, I usually downgrade ext3
to ext2 beforehand, and upgrade to ext3 afterwards.
Shrinking is harder in that you need
to specify the size you need in the correct units.
There is also a resize_reiserfs command
which I have never tried.
See the man page for resize2fs
I doubt if you will notice much difference
between ext3 and reiserfs.

Thanks,
but what are the advantage of using ext3 against reiserf. Is It simple
to
modify the size of ext3 file system if necessary?
