Hi I have a hardware RAID-5 that I've just expanded with two disks, parted shows the following (parted) print free Model: HPT DISK_5_0 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdc: 1250GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 32.3kB 750GB 750GB primary 750GB 1250GB 500GB Free Space on top of partition 1 I currently have lvm and ext3. Now what I try to do is to expand partition 1 and then a pvresize in lvm. But parted will not let me resize sdc1 instead it complains "Could not detect file system." I'm not sure parted supports resizing och lvm partition or whether I'm doing something wrong here. I guess I could create a second partition from the free space and include it my volume group. What would be best practice? /markus
