[linux-lvm] Resizing LVM Revisited

[Michael Loftis]

For 2.4 kernels (2.4.20 and later) we've always used ReiserFS and had 
extremely good results with online/hot expansion on top of LVMs.  We use 
ext3 for our static os/boot areas but all of our data areas, and since 
we're using debian, that's just /var, and maybe /home, reside on LVM + 
ReiserFS.
