I am trying to install to install EPEL Repository on CentOS 5.7.
I still have lots of space available on my hard drive.
/dev/sda2 3.9G 3.9G 0 100% /
/dev/sda11 17G 2.9G 13G 19% /extra
/dev/sda10 996M 44M 901M 5% /logs
/dev/sda9 2.0G 670M 1.2G 36% /applications1
I just want to use some space from /extra
so I can install mysql 5.5.20. Since I don't have physical access to this machine I cannot use CD and make partitions. There is no important data on this machine.
What is the safest way to do this.
This is the output of partition table

Disk /dev/sda: 75.2GB
