"Parted doesn't understand LVM partitions [so this has to be done using fdisk]" How, by the way, it seems that parted can shrink partitions (http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/). However I seem to remember having some troubles to do that. Does that apply to LVM partitions too? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2003 8:19 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Making Partitions Bigger? I'm suprised no-one has suggested using parted. The best way I've found for using parted is run linux in single user mode, unmount the /var filesystem and from the command-line run parted. GNU Parted is a very nice tool but I don't remember it's possible to decrease partition size. With the information coming from Billy (df -h) it's not possible to tell wether he's still free space on his drive(s) or not. If he's no more space, then he would have to decrease size. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
