I installed FreeBSD on a 350Mb partition last year with a DOS fs on the other
500Mb of the disk, but I seem to have underestimated how much I would use
BSD and now I'm constantly running out of space on the BSD partition while 
200Mb sits unused on the in DOS. Can I use fips to convert this 200Mb to bsd
and if so how exactly would I do it?
