If I understand you correctly you will need to do something along these lines... You need to know the names of your volume groups and logical volumes. use pvscan, vgscan & lvscan to display what you have. eg root@MythTV:/etc# pvscan PV /dev/sdc2 VG vg_tv lvm2 [1.82 TiB / 59.31 GiB free] Total: 1 [1.82 TiB] / in use: 1 [1.82 TiB] / in no VG: 0 [0 ] root@MythTV:/etc# vgscan Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Found volume group "vg_tv" using metadata type lvm2 root@MythTV:/etc# lvscan ACTIVE '/dev/vg_tv/lv_photo' [292.97 GiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/vg_tv/lv_music' [195.31 GiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/vg_tv/lv_video' [1.19 TiB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/vg_tv/lv_backup' [97.66 GiB] inherit ensure that /dev/sdb5 is partition type LVM # fdisk /dev/sdb use p command to display partitions use t command to change type to 8e Add the partition to you volume group # pvcreate /dev/sdb5 Add the new partition to your volume group # vgextend vg_name /dev/sdb5 Extend the root logical volume # lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/vg_name/lv_root /dev/sdb5 Resize the volume to match # resize2fs /dev/vg_name/lv_root
Thanks for the suggestions, I think I may have enough there to fix things, that or destroy the system! :-)
I will give it a go in the morning.
