I'm trying to resize my /boot partition because Ubuntu is complaining every time when it wants to install a new kernel that there isn't enough space.

So I made a live stick with the current GNOME Ubuntu and tried to resize my /dev/sda2 with gparted. Although it seems to have problems with LVM. I can't expand the LVM in order to resize the partitions. It isn't even mounted.

can't expand lvm

I forgot to mention, that the Live USB runs with GNOME... The actual OS on my laptop is just Ubuntu 14.04 LTS if that matters.

Try Neon Developer Edition CD (https://neon.kde.org/download)

  • Install KDE Partition Manager using sudo apt install partitionmanager

KDE Partition Manager can resize LVM PVs that are members of LVM VG.
