qnap virtualization station shrink disk image

virtualization station says its not possible. that got me interested.

(need: a lot of formatting and writing this together)

  1. live linux image (boot from CD. we are resizing root.. which is a logical volume)
  2. https://www.xeve.de/wp/2022/12/shrinking-a-qnap-virtualization-station-disk-image/
  3. last step fails > library cannot be found
  4. https://neuronetix.de/?p=439
  5. gparted was neccessary.. repairing the backup GPT after the last step.

nice lesson in linux partition and LVM manipulation
