I've read the following on the squid faq:

<faq>
The procedure is similar to recreate the directory.

   1. Edit squid.conf and add a new cache_dir line.
   2. Initialize the new directory by running

% squid -z

      NOTE: it is safe to run this even if Squid is already running.
squid -z will harmlessly try to create all of the subdirectories that
already exist.
   3. Reconfigure Squid

squid -k reconfigure

      Unlike deleting, you can add new cache directories while Squid is
already running.
</faq>

but it doesn't work for me.
