It wouldn't surprise me. How can I unravel this (short of a complete reinstallation)? I'm not enamoured of LVM and would be quite happy to revert to basic partitioning, but if that isn't feasible I'm willing to move forward to LVM-only if that's what it takes.
Well, first I would try to mount /dev/mapper/fedora_localhost--live-home someplace to see if there is any data to save.
I did. There's nothing on it.
If not, I'd use lvremove to get rid of it.
Did that.
And then I'd use lvextend to distribute the freed space to root. That, or use pvresize to release the space from the pv.
Not sure if there is any actual space, but I'll look into it.
Of course, I'd have to learn about those commands a bit more since it has been years since I've used them. :-) :-)
Same here :-)
However, after removing the LVM and rebooting, I'm no longer getting the pop-up, so I'm crossing my fingers and declaring the issue solved.
Many thanks to all who made suggestions.
