This is the root dir and I can not unmount it. I figure some one can give me the step by step way of doing this because I have tried everything I can think of to do this, including: - booting to rescue mode - going to single user mode But no matter what I try I can not resize this LV. If anyone has done this can you please help me with the steps to do this. I'm adding a new drive (pv) and I have done the following: - pvcreate /dev/sdb - vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/sdb - I grabbed the PE from pvdisplay -> 191 - lvextend -l 191 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /dev/sdb And I need to run resize2fs /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 but I need to umount it first. Any help greatly appreciated.
