Yup. Boot into rescue mode, the make sure the sysimage root is not
mounted and then resize2fs && lvm resize. Since you're presumably
talking about FC2test, not FC1, you may have to lvm vgcfgbackup && lvm
vgcfgrestore to get the free PE count in the PV fixed (bug 112089,
fixed in LVM2 CVS but not yet in rawhide).
Also, can I grow and shrink any filesystem I desire, anywhere in
the
LVG no matter what the order in which I defined them? i.e. is any
free space in the LVG available to any filesystem in it?
Yup, that's the beauty of LVM.
Oh, and while I'm asking questions, what is the status of
ext2online
and Fedora.
Last I tried, it didn't work. No harm done, the syscall just failed.
