Disk and file system partitions question

I've just initialised the 140 Mbyte hard disk on my ISC-based system, as
follows:
DOS Partition
UNIX Parition:
/
/usr
/usr2
and then spent 4 hours copying software into the root and /usr file systems.
While loading the last piece of software into /usr, I got the message that
there wasn't enough space left in /usr. Definitely a case of Murphy's Law
raising its ugly head!
Without re-initialising the disk and re-loading the software already loaded:
1. Can I increase the size of /usr at the expense of /usr2?
2. Can I vary the realtive sizes of the DOS and UNIX partitions?
Thanks, PPM
