[SunHELP] Increasing root partition

Hi,

my / partition has become too small and now I want to increase it 
without having to install Solaris. I was thinking of partitioning a new 
disk with larger / and then use dd to copy all the info there. I tried it 
and I couldn't even get the new partition to mount, it was not labeled 
after I dd'd / there.
Is this the wrong approach? How to do this otherwise?

Cheers,

Maarten
