Hi. I've seen a thread about the workaround for pvresize (link), and managed to do it without problems. I reduced the PV and VG size from 18Gb to 11Gb, and everything works, but the "LVM partition" is still 18Gb (when I see it with a partition manager it says it is a 18Gb 8e or unknown partition). quote: > after that i can reduce hda6 with parted or similar utility. and the new size is 384 sectors plus 224 extents of 65536 sectors each. However, I can't resize it with parted, because it only supports resizing partitions inside LV's. CoolkcaH
