How do I resize a normal partition and the filesystem on it? Like I already said, filesystem is ext4.
Kurz und bündig: You extend that partition and then you run resize2fs.
I guess the real issue is how to get some more room for sda1 ?
No, that's all just plain LVM - pvmove, pvremove, delete sda2, that's peanuts, I have been teaching RHCE students for five years how to do that...
Delete partitions sda2 and sda1, recreate sda1 at the same starting point, but with more room. Recreate sda2. resize2fs sda1.
this is the actual issue - the only solutions I've found all involve deleting and recreating the partition and I'm just a bit ... i guess scared by that.
I think parted allows to resize partitions, does it not?
If I break that system I won't have working internet or email at home until i reinstall it, and my wife's totally hooked on this series on netflix right now...
That's what backups are for :)
I'm just thinking "what if the block addressing scheme in the partition table has been changed in the meantime", the partition table is over 7 years old...
It hasn't.
Cheers Mathias
