That was my second mistake ;-) I didn't use LVM... The way I saw it is, since I only have one HD, why should I need LVM? Now, from your post, it seems that LVM has advantages even for single HD, is that right?
By the way, since I didn't use LVM, and wat to increase the size of / (root) taking space from /home, am I just screwed?
Not necessarilly, it depends mostly on your partition layout. What partitions have you defined - please give device (disk) names and mount points.
If you are in a situation where you can either temporarily delete a partition after having backed it up, or shrink an existing one to create a new one, then you should have some options available to you.
Do a "man resize2fs" and read that.
Gustavo.
