My hard drive...
# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 203.9 GB, 203928109056 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 24792 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00086350

# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 88G 54G 30G 65% /
/dev/sda1 99M 36M 59M 39% /boot
this as a result of resizing/shrinking /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 down
from approximately 180 Gb down to 90 Gb (obviously the ext3 filesystem
was resized first because it's working).
I wanted to create free space in the process to do another install not
in the LVM but apparently the swap portion /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 is 1
Gb and I'm guessing that it has to be moved to be contiguous
with /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 and that should somehow make the allow the
rest of the space to be free to be re-used in other ways.
What piece of information am I missing to make the now approx 90Gb free?
