Re: [linux-lvm] vg works fine under FC3, but not FC4

[<john_gore yahoo com>]

Thanks, I guess the right way to do this is to use fdisk to remove partitions 1 and 5, then extend the lv to cover the whole disk, then use resize2fs or ext2resize to resize the filesystem

 

This seems preferrable to reverting to version 2.00 and maintaining an old version

 

Thanks, John
