That may be the part I'm missing.  I was working through
http://fedoranews.org/mediawiki/index.php/Expanding_Linux_Partitions_with_LVM#Extending_LVM_partition,
 I used lvextend, but I'm unable to unmount and remount the volume
because it's mounted as /.

The next step in the described process is to use ext2online, but that is
not installed on my system.  yum provides ext2online comes up empty.
