Re: Fedora-xen Digest, Vol 13, Issue 10

[Stan Larson]

I'm not a Xen guru (or any other guru for that matter) and I haven't 
used FC6.  However, I have documented detailed procedures for expanding 
a DomU on FC5 at the following HowTo on XenSource.  In a nutshell, I 
added a partition to the DomU using fdisk within the guest environment 
and then used LVM to expand the  existing logical partition that 
contained the root filesystem.

Skip down to the section labeled "Expand A Guest Domain's Disk Space And 
Filesystem".
