Solved Ubuntu 18.04 Space Issue
-
I assume you setup this installation with LVM, yes?
-
@DustinB3403 Correct. I thought that was best practice? Correct me if I am wrong please.

Seems like / was only setup for 4GB... Why?
Because that is the default configuration, you have to specify if you want something different.

:pensive_face: I did a minimal install

So any idea how to expand it out? Does it only do this with LVM?

It was the better choice, all you have to do is extend it.

Yeah, trying to find some good instructions on that now.

So to test, I just went through a basic 18.04 install, setup LVM and my file system layout is completely different. It allocated the entire 100GB I setup to /dev/sda1.
You must've done something custom to get this.

Did you do a netinstall? (I did)Well, I just need to get it expanded for now.

No, not net install, minimal desktop.

Maybe netinstall is different?

Seems like I should just be able to extend LVM across the whole drive, but I can't find a way to do it...
-
@Curtis can you show me the output of ...
lvdisplay vgdisplay -

LVM is across the whole drive, that's not the issue.

Probably to leave room for other things to be configured

@Curtis Run this...
lvresize -l +100%FREE /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv -

No, the volume
Then the filesystem.What kind of filesystem is it? EXT4? XFS?
