I've installed F10 as a guest system in VMWare. After a few days, I realized the virtual drive is already approaching its limits, so I plan to enlarge it. After reading a bit, the following steps should do it: The current disk layout is quite simple. Only 2 partitions, /dev/sda1 mounted on / and /dev/sda2 for swapspace. * Backup everything (easy, just backup the VMWare virtual disk drive) * use vmware-vdiskmanager to grow the virtual drive * use the install medium to boot into rescue mode, but do NOT let the rescue console mount the partition(s) * perform a full (-f) file system check * use fdisk to a) delete the swap partition (which directly follows the primary root partition) * again fdisk to delete the primary partition immediately followed by recreating it with the new size (leave the desired amount of free space for the new swap partition). * use resize2fs on the new partition to grow the file system. * create a new swap partition using the remaining free space. Modify /etc/fstab with the new UUID of the newly created swapspace. That should basically do it, right? Any things which could go wrong except for the odd typo when recreating the partition? /Alex -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
