WRONG!!! (or partially anyway) Here's the rundown:
reiser3, resizable online in two ways
1)resize_reiserfs /path/to/dev
2)mount -o remount,resize /path/to/dev
XFS, MUST be mounted to resize use xfs_grow /mount/point
JFS, resizable online with a mount -o remount,resize /path/to/dev
ext2/3, resizable offline reliably. Online resize is a *very* experimental
experiment. Have good backups.
For a good reference if one is ever needed to give to a friend, relative or
foe try http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/extendlv.html
