Hi all,
I'm preparing some cloud images for the major Linux distributions and I'd like
they to grow their root fs on boot (to use all the available space).
Ubuntu cloud images (http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com) use initramfs-growroot but
installing it (and maintaining it across kernel upgrade) could be tricky -at
least for me- on redhat derived like centos or fedora.
Note cloud-utils (including growroot) is currently in review for Red Hat
flavored distros:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=907756
So my question is: what are pros and cons of using an ext3/4 root-fs and
initramfs-growroot, or LVM (with a custom script that runs on first boot)?
LVM might be a bit heavy weight for this?
cheers,
Pádraig.
