Merge hda8 and hda9. Only h would change letter (and perhaps i, but as
that is a network drive it should be configurable).
Some notes:
1. There's something strange as hda7 should be before hda8 in the
DOZE lettering of drives.
2. How did you manage to get 4kB clusters on hda5. That should be 2kiB
cluster if you let DOZE format create it.
3. Make sure that you make the merged partition a little smaller than
256 so you get 4 kB clusters. You really should remake hda7 as well,
because of this. And perhaps hda[156] as well. You seem to have
choosen to make all your partition juuuuust a little too big to get
the better cluster size (smaller is better) (perhaps except for the
swap partition, where 4kiB should be optimal. Although I'm not sure it
matters much).
Right,
