I did something stupid, and I need help.
The goal is to have a single hard drive with four partitions: NTFS, FAT32 (/home), swap, and LVM ext3 (/). What I have now is NTFS, Swap, and one LVM VG that contains both / and /home, and both are ext3.
First,
# pvresize Command not implemented yet.
Is there a workaround (short of writing pvresize)?
Second, I had a feeble hope that Windows XP (booted off the NTFS partition) would deign to see a FAT32 LV under LVM. That is, if I change /home to be FAT32, Windows might see it, so I figured I'd give it a shot. (Is this futile?)
# mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02 mkdosfs 2.8 (28 Feb 2001) mkdosfs: Unable to get drive geometry for '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02'
Why can't it get the geometry? Does LVM support FAT32 LVs? Does mkdosfs support LVM?
Thanks!
