Who in their right mind uses LVM now? I stopped messing with that PoS 5 years ago. It's a PITA to manage, recovering from a failure is almost impossible, and accessing / on an LVM drive from a boot/rescue disk is a crap shoot. On Thu, Aug 11, 2016 at 9:41 AM, Dario Lesca wrote: > Il giorno

OK so as it turns out, I'm unable to figure out how to get either blivet-gui 1.2.4 or 2.0.1 to resize most anything whether mounted or not. The resize option is grayed out pretty much all the time. The one exception I found so far is blivet-gui 1.2.4 will resize ext4 on LVM (resizes both the fs and
