Currently I have LVM on the machine, and I'm doing some test with it. I admit it, I am a newbie with LVM. The fact is that I want to use the rezising capabilities of LVM.
Here some information.

Now, when I run ext2resize to make the operation, I got it.
ext2resize -v /dev/vg/usr 3g
ext2resize v1.1.17 - 2001/03/18 for EXT2FS 0.5b
ext2resize: ext2_open: fs has unsupported feature(s) enabled: compat 20 incompat 4ext2resize: can't open /dev/vg/usr
What's worng...??
Currently I'm using ext3 filesystem.
Another way to try it is with parted.
Using /dev/vg/usr (parted) resize Partition number? 1 Start? 0 End? [6143.9995]? 2000 Warning: Filesystem was not cleanly unmounted! You should e2fsck. Ignore/Cancel? I Error: Filesystem has incompatible feature enabled (parted)
Is there a way to make the resize (with any tool or some specific tool) without unmount the filesystem...??
What's wrong with parted and with ext2resize...??
Anybody can help me on this...??
Thanks a lot
