Description Christian S. Peron 2002-08-29 04:00:08 UTC
The man page does not explicitly instruct the user that if
they wish to grow a filesystem beyond the boundary of the slice
the filesystem resides in, they will have to edit the size
of the slice using fdisk in addition to using disklabel.

How-To-Repeat: 
  Convert yourself into a not so clued user, man growfs and
	attempt to growfs your filesystem beyond the boundary of the
	slice as per the instructions in the manual.

The entries of the same section should be sorted alphabetically in SEE 
ALSO (and the sections sorted in numerical order: 1 first, then 2, etc.) 
I've committed a slightly different version of the diff to match this. 

In a few days, I'll merge this to STABLE, after I ask for RE approval 
since we're entering a code freeze for 4.7-RELEASE on September 1.

Merged to RELENG_4. 
Thanks for your contribution to making FreeBSD even better. 
It'd just have been nicer if I had worked a bit harder on PRs and 
managed to get this into 4.7-RELEASE too :/
