I recently installed debian 12 using debian-12.2.0-arm64-netinst.iso. It is the only OS installed and I used the whole 500GB disk.
I selected something like guided partitioning with separate /home/
using LVM and encryption. Now that I am using my system a bit, I realize that I don’t think it ever asked me how big to make the /
partition and it is very small. Only 27GB.
Will this be a problem?
Or, is the LVM going to allow the partition to be resized or otherwise take up as much of the space as it requires?
# lsblk

└─mycomputer--vg-home 253:3 0 447G 0 lvm /home
I tried booting into a live usb to resize the partition using gparted
but I couldn’t seem to do so.
If I need to reinstall and change something I’d rather do it now than later.
The installer lets you do a custom partition layout.
That is my previous experience. I guess i missed it somehow.
