-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I had installed Fedora on a dual-boot system using default partition, where Windows had the first partitions on both drives, C and D. I've removed the D partition to give that to Fedora. Although it looks like the logical volume is 74GB larger, df is showing the same 143GB as before. How do I get Fedora LVM to use all of the space? Following instructions from various Googled sources, I created a partition /dev/sdb1(formerly D) and added it to VolGroup00 # pvdisplay --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/sda3 VG Name VolGroup00 PV Size 74.32 GB / not usable 8.80 MB Allocatable yes (but full) PE Size (KByte) 32768 Total PE 2378 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 2378 PV UUID ZQ0z6V-iME2-7hNv-8oFY-CPz1-I3p9-qr0UIC --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/sdb2 VG Name VolGroup00 PV Size 74.31 GB / not usable 25.11 MB Allocatable yes (but full) PE Size (KByte) 32768 Total PE 2377 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 2377 PV UUID stTPob-H2GB-5TiA-br1Z-tfp1-nveK-qr83m1 --- Physical volume --- ##### THIS IS THE NEW ONE ###### PV Name /dev/sdb1 VG Name VolGroup00 PV Size 74.74 GB / not usable 23.00 MB Allocatable yes PE Size (KByte) 32768 Total PE 2391 Free PE 105 Allocated PE 2286 PV UUID LZTmnI-3TY7-2Ch8-h08E-VQA0-XVzN-jAtEYD It looks like the LV increased in size by the extra 74GB # lvdisplay --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 VG Name VolGroup00 LV UUID OIyFZ7-cfpt-BCiN-x51g-KWki-D3df-XTm3Ll LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 1 LV Size 218.09 GB Current LE 6979 Segments 4 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors 0 Block device 253:0 --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 VG Name VolGroup00 LV UUID pxWlHu-qCUk-9K3E-RK6i-DFJb-OyDN-2nEmmh LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 1 LV Size 1.94 GB Current LE 62 Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors 0 Block device 253:1 # more /etc/fstab /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0 - -- Steve -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHTkezeERILVgMyvARAlfXAJ95OZKxbo+0BdAV8jQ6eRPJGCzLVQCeJvK2 uEZjG00eDszvmj3wj9UBSD8= =gR0Y -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
