Hi. I kickstarted a computer with the following: #clearpart --linux --drives=hdd #part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 --asprimary #part pv.15 --size=29957 --asprimary #part pv.9 --size=8092 --asprimary #volgroup VolGroup00 --pesize=32768 pv.9 #volgroup VolGroup01 --pesize=32768 pv.15 #logvol swap --fstype swap --name=LogVol01 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=1024 #logvol /home --fstype ext3 --name=LogVol00 --vgname=VolGroup01 --size=29920 #logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=LogVol00 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=7008 only to find out from the user that they needed more root space, but didn't realize it at the time. They now want to grow their root by 2GB. Is there a relatively painless/foolproof way to do this, say rebooting in rescue mode, and resizing? The user doesn't want to machine dumped/restored, or reimaged (because it's now been customized).
Where is this extras space going to come from? You can't easily get it by reducing /home because for some reason you put that on a different volume group.
