Exclamation Resizing a UFS Partition on FreeBSD 7

I have a virtual machine running FreeBSD and I got out of space..

Is there a way of moving the entire OS to a bigger virtual disk? I'm using a vmdk on virtualbox for windows, I have qemu to convert from vdi to vmdk, I'm using vmdk because I often move the virtual disk to another host, to continue work at home.

Actually, first I'd have to create a 2nd disk and append it to the vm..

But yes, I'm willing to resize a UFS partition
