Hi,
I tried the steps described in the link u sent me..
but at the end I am getting the following error:
$>lvextend -L+3G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
Extending logical volume LogVol00 to 10.03 GN
device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument

My Fedora-8 guest is running following:

The last few lines of /var/log/messages (after
attempting to "lvextend" the logical volume), as

Will appreciate any further feedback.
Thanks,
kamdard.
I googled on "reload ioctl failed: Invalid
