[Tfug] A question about partitions

Hi,

I have a strange quandary. Way back when I partitioned my hard drive (a
small drive, on an old computer), I kept 5 gigs for root & 10 for /home.
Well, now I have barely 400 MB free on root & almost 4 gigs free on /home.

Is there any way to shift disk space from /home to root without losing any
data? Alternatively, can I split up that unused disk space to mount other
folders (like /usr)? And if yes, which ones would be best?

Thanks in advance,

Wafa.
