actually, Partition Magic handles linux ext2 partitions (see
http://www.powerquest.com). i've used partition magic, although it's
a bit of an overkill for this longer-term "problem" (also, it doesn't
come with a text-mode interface AFAIK).
note that you can often just use symbolic links to indefinitely
postpone having to repartition.
