Good to hear.
devfs support is already in the LVM TODO.

AFAIK we only have Ted Tso's resize2fs which is able to resize
unmonted ext2fses.

It will be available under GPL next year.

For today you are only able to have an Intel binary copy
as a Quarterdesk Partition Magic customer.

If you have the resize2fs binary the LVM e2fsadm(8) command is able 
to resize a logical volume _and_ the contained ext2fs.
