[Ocfs2-users] Probles resizing a partition

[Mattia Gandolfi]

Hi Sunsil,

sorry for bothering you... probably it was too late yesterday and I missed
an obvious step (deleting and recreating the partition with fdisk).
Now it works like a charm.

Thank you anyway for pointing me in the right direction ;)

Cheers

Mattia
