Robert,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm runnin' Debian-2.6.17.2.

I'm a bit confused that 
    du -sh /
says "20G" and the HD is approx 10G.

Anyway, what I've decided to try is "parted", the partition editor.
Partitions can be resized, moved, deleted, etc....
I have no experience with this but my plan is:
    since I don't have enough remaining space on hda to simply move 
    hda2 to the end of hda, and thereby create enough space adjacent
    to hda1 to resize [expand] it; so, I plan to move each partition,
    maintaining it's size, as far toward disk's end as possible, starting
    with the last and working upward to the first, which I'll then
    expand.

Cordially,
Courtney
