I've just read the lvm howto and other stuff on 'Changing the Size of the LVM-Partitions' -- and I don't like the sound of it a bit. Lots of talk of "if something goes wrong", and very complicated. I think I'll go back to the old way as soon as I have energy to do the moving. There is room on my second hard drive to copy the whole system off, repartition the first drive, and copy it back. With boot on a non-LVM partition, I assume it will all reboot quite happily afterwards. (Mental note: I must remember to remove everything lvm from /etc/rc*.d. before rebooting) [...] > However, I don't see that your setup needs any tweaking right now. / is > at 68% with 81 MB free. True, that is after I moved /opt from / to /usr/local. When I first stumbled on the issue, it was at 96%.
