Modifying fstab file on T7400

[Marco.Monopoli at apbrakes.it]

Thank you,

I have solved using the rescue cd modifying the fstab and mounting the new 
logical group volume.

But now I need to increase the swap partition size in the first disk.
How can I modify the swap logical volume from 1.94Gb to 16Gb without 
re-install the operative system?

In the first disk I have one logical group volume with 2 logical volumes:
- / root file system
- / swap

Many thanks

Marco

I need also to increase the swap partition size,

You might try using rescue mode with the RHEL 5 media (boot disk 1, type 
?rescue? at the boot prompt)

I have created a raid disk and now I need to modify the fstab file on 
RHWS5 x64 on a precision T7400. 
Dell support has problems to help me because they aren?t too skilled on 
Linux, even if I have bought 3 years of business support.   
Now the system stops during the start-up because it's impossible mount the 
old disk configuration. 
Entering as root in repair file system I cannot modify the file, all the 
files and directory are read-only. 
How can I modify and save the read-only file? 

Thanks 

Marco
