I installed F10Spin2, and selected "encrypted" for root. So grub boots root with "root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00". I would like to test extending VolGroup00/LogVol00 by adding a partition that currently contains an NTFS file system (/dev/sda2). Googling yields the following recipe: 1. "pvcreate /dev/sda2" 2. "vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/sda2" 3. "lvextend -l +100%PVS /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /dev/sda2" 4. "cryptsetup resize luks-XXXXXX" (where luks-XXXXXX is the name shown in /dev/mapper/luks*) 5. "resizefs /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00" Before I possibly blow away my root fs, I thought I would ask: 1. Can the above be done on an active root, or must I do this with the Live/Rescue CD? 2. Does the above order look right, that is, pvcreate -> vgextend -> lvextend -> cryptsetup resize -> resizefs 3. I notice there is "lvresize" as well. Any differences of note? This the "right way" to do this? Other suggestions/recommendations (besides backing up first ;) )? I presume this will "automagically" extend the encryption to the new PV/extent of the LV. Right? Apologize if this is Fedora-documented somewhere. Pointers welcome!
