I could not work out how to extend the / filesystem after I extended the LV containing / .. It wanted the / partition dismounted before it would extend the filesystem.. I tried to do this by booting CD 1 in rescue mode and the trying to extend the filesystem using resize2fs which simply gave me the error saying it would not extend..
So the question is has anyone using LVM ever extended their LV that contained the / partition??
As a guideline is it NOT recommended to put / into LVM but rather keep / out and simply create LV's for /home, /var and any other data storage locations??
Thanks for your thoughts..
Later..
