For users who require more, use procedure below to change the size of the file system for one host account. All commands must be executed as root. In this example, the user's account name is alice and the new file system size is 2GB.

$ dd if=/dev/null of=/home/alice/new.ext3 bs=1M seek=1999 count=1
$ e2fsck -f /home/alice/new.ext3
$ resize2fs /home/alice/new.ext3
$ mv /home/alice/default.ext3 /tmp/alice.ext3
