I want to increase my disk capacity on my virtual machine. I went on and expanded 8GB more free space from the settings. Now, I can see that part as a free space on my Ubuntu guest. I want to extend my root partition with this free space right now. I am following,
Here, it explains how we can extend a root partition if it resides in a logical volume. I did follow up until step 9. I made my free space a Linux LVM partition and made it into a physical partition etc. Now, at step 9
vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/sda3
I am getting an error saying basically there is no VolGroup00
. This is expected since I didn't created my root partition as a logical volume. So at this stage, is there a way for me to extend my root partition?
