Hi, on Fedora Core 1 (kernel 2.4.22-1.2199.5.legacy.nptl) I would like to resize my root partition, I use lvm. I have this error: [root@theta root]# ext2online -d -v /dev/Volume00/LogVol00 group 2 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 4 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 6 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 8 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 10 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 11 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 12 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 13 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 14 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 15 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 16 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 17 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 18 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 19 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 20 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 21 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 22 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 23 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 24 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 26 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 28 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 29 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 30 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 31 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 32 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 33 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 34 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 35 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 36 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 37 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 38 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 39 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 40 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 41 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 42 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 43 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 44 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 45 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 46 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 47 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 48 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 50 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 51 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 52 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 53 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 54 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 55 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 56 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 57 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 58 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 59 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 60 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 61 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 62 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 63 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 64 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 65 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 66 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 67 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 68 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 69 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 70 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 71 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 72 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 73 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 74 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 75 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 76 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 77 inode table has offset 2, not 4 group 78 inode table has offset 2, not 4 ext2online: group 0, block 2 not reserved ext2online: unable to resize /dev/Volume00/LogVol00 I don't patched the kernel (I don't understand how, excuse me for my ignorance) Help me, please!! -- ------------------------------------------------- Cristina Tanzi Tolenti CED - Provincia di Cremona C.so V.Emanuele II, 17 - 26100 Cremona tel. 0372/406362 e-mail cri...@pr... ------------------------------------------------- |

Old vanilla kernels doesn't support online resize. The kernel patch for online resize was merged in 2.6 days. So use a newer kernel, like the comming 2.6.16. -- Coywolf Qi Hunt |

The online resizing is part of the 2.6.9-RHEL4 and 2.6.12+ kernels. You likely need to boot to a rescue CD and then do an offline resize with ext2resize or resize2fs.
