Shrinking LUKS Partition in Fedora 11
Hello, all.
I am trying to shrink my LUKS-encrypted LVM-Managed partition on Fedora 11.
I was able to resize the filesystem(s), the Logical Volumes, and the Volume Groups using this guide: How to: Resize an Encrypted Partition (LUKS) - Ubuntu Forums ( I can't post the link, sorry. :P )
I booted to an F11 LiveCD and completed all of the steps accordingly up to #5. After I ran :
I decided to check and see if my crypt had really resized correctly. So I opened it up again and checked:Code:$cryptsetup status crypt1 <Original size displayed. Too large, so I resize it.> $cryptsetup -o #### -b ######### resize crypt1 $cryptsetup status crypt1 <Shows the size I chose in the previous step> $cryptsetup luksClose crypt1
I really don't want to screw anyting up here, so could someone please show me how to finish this job? My fedora install can still boot fine.Code:$cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda2 crypt1 $cryptsetup status crypt1 <Shows original size, again!!>
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
