I am experimenting a bit with LVM on my 10.0 system. Now wha I did was
fist have just one partion on one drive in LVM. That one is backup and

Now I wanted to add another 37GB from another drive and partition. That
is /dev/hde2. When I look in YaST, I see the colume group systen, the
Size is 151.6GB and that looks just great.

However when I do a `df -h`, I get :
/dev/mapper/system-LVM
123G 111G 12G 91% /media/backup

So why does it not see the extra space?

It won't automatically expand the size of any partitions contained
within a volume group.

So how do I add extra volume to LVM?
