Assuming you are using a reiserfs filesystem, resizing it is a 2-step |
| 69 |
process. The first step is what you have accomplished. The second step |
| 70 |
is: |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
resize_reiserfs -f /dev/vg/home |
| 73 |
|
| 74 |
However, given the output of your "vgdisplay" with particular reference |
| 75 |
to the lines below, I doubt that you can resize any logical volumes in |
| 76 |
your volume group: |
