have an up to date system running Debian 9.4.
If you prefer media for Debian 9.4, you will have to wait for the

Hello everybody.
I hope someone can help me out of this (hopefully) simple problem.
Currently iam working on a new kernel (4.12.13) for my debian server.
The kernel compiles fine, the initrd will be created using
mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-4.12.13 4.12.13
but on a reboot and booting
ume group. That way you would be able to create new logical
volumes. Alternatively, you could resize the last partition on each
disk to take advantage of the additional space. However, the
suitability of that approach depends on your current partition scheme.
