Hi Managers,

        Thanks to all who responded, especially (Paul Henderson and Darryl
Cook). My original message is at the end.
        Well, with the graphical "Disk Configuration" I can´t resolve my
problem, because I need to umount the filesystems ("/" and "/usr") before
the modifications. So, I make the changes with the disklabel command, and
then I add the new partition in the /etc/fstab file. Additionally, I use the
"swapon -a" command to add this swap space overriding the /etc/fstab
definitions - otherwise, it would be done in the next system reboot.
