How did you copy the root filesystem to a larger minidisk?
Just using DDR won't work. You have to mount the new (larger) minidisk, go to run level 1 (where there is minimal activity on the system), copy the files to the new minidisk, make it bootable, then boot from the new minidisk. That is somewhat simplified and I think there may be a howto on linuxvm.org. Troy A Slaughter wrote:
I'm trying to find a way to get zLinux to recognized the increase in space after I copied the root filesystem to a larger minidisk. It starts up just fine, but it doesn't *see* the increase. Does anyone know what I have to do from a Linux perspective to accomplish this? I'm playing around with LVM and plan on using that in the future. I guess I'm more curious that anything else as to if this can be done. CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This communication is confidential, may be privileged and is meant only for the intended recipient.
