Hi,
I installed Ubuntu 10.04 Server using LVM during the install. This is a
intranet/home/personal server - it works well so far. I will run out of
space and want to add a hard drive. AFAIK I specifically need more space
in the web "document root" - in /var/www . I have 60 out of a 100 GB
hard disk devoted to that area right now and I continue to load video
and audio files under /var/www - it will fill up.
I stand ready to provide any info needed. I think I can fill in the
details from the manual...
But generally speaking what should I do?
Below I'm taking a stab at what info is needed. Thanks:
$ sudo fdisk -l
