Hi,
If it's not possible at all, I'm thinking of changing my habit of
creating one LV for the guest "/" and another for its swap (the
guest has "/" on xvda and swap on xvdb, both without partitions), and
use instead one single LV, with xvda1 as the swap (which I'll never
resize) and xvda2 as "/".
From there, in my experience, it's possible to grow the LV, then use
fdisk to remove xvda2 and re-create it with the new size, then grow the
ext3 filesystem. Is this correct?
I've tried using parted to grow the partition and filesystem all at
once, but it tells me that the filesystem has some incompatible
features. Possible extended attributes or something (just a guess).
Any hacks and suggestions are welcome :-)
Contemplate creating a minimal rescue system with which to do the
maintenance. When you need to do some hackery, attach the relevant
devices to the rescue system and do it with that.
Other than that, you could work up a patch to Anaconda, and use the
"updates.img" trick (it used to be a floppy image, remember) and use that.
