Simple Alasdair, why didn't you ask in the first place.
I added 20G of space to the vmware virtual drive.
pvresize - success
vgresize - success
and then I tried to do a lvresize but it failed.
I didn't understand your original answer but Marian was a bit clearer, however
I'm still confused and I can't fix my drive.
There are so many fs types and they race them through fedora. I realise this
isn't your problem but I'm left not knowing how to fix this. I tried gparted
but it can't resize lvms and I don't know how to resize my sdb2. Could you
offer any help or point me to a dummies guide since this is a lvm partition. I
found a guide to resize an ext3 or ext2, but not lvm and I don't know if it
will break if I try to delete the partition and recreate it?
HYCH,
Hugh
