       not have a manual page.

       -s           --size

EXAMPLES

       fatresize -s 2G /dev/evms/hdb2

       fatresize -q -s 3G /dev/hde6

       fatresize -i /dev/hdg3

       Size and device is required to run.  You can resize device-mapped  partitions,  e.g.  EVMS
       partitions.

BUGS

       You  can't  resize  FAT32  partition  lesser  than  512Mb  because Windows(R) doesn't work
       properly with small FAT32 file system. Use FAT16.
