comment How to decrease size of KVM virtual machine disk image
@AnsgarWiechers, Yes, I still need to use the disk, and I've allocated far more space than I'll ever need.

The hard part is "Shrink the filesystem". I'm using an LVM, which no tool I've found support resizing. Not even a GParted Live CD.

@NiallByrne, Yes, the Virtualbox VM is using NAT, listed as "PCnet-FAST III (NAT)". Please see my edit above about the host's routing table.

I'm running this on a laptop with a wireless ethernet connection. Most documentation I've read about bridging mentions that most wifi Linux drivers don't support bridging (or not very well). I did try creating a bridge with my wifi ethernet interface, but it caused gnome-shell to crash and burn.

The Windows guest is using 192.168.122.1 as its DNS server. The guest can't ping the Google opendns IP.

comment How to resize root LVM partition in Fedora without LiveCD or Rebooting
@Zoredache, Ok, well, that's basically my entire question. I don't know how to do that. I just booted into a Gparted LiveCD and tried to use parted's resize command to increase the primary partition size, but it gave me the error "Could not detect filesystem". How do you resize the partition using parted or fdisk?

"New size (1076 extents) matches existing size (1076 extents)"

Using a Gparted Live CD, sudo pvresize /dev/sda2 reports "1 physical volume(s) resized", but sudo lvextend /dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root -L +10G fails with the error "insufficient free space: 320 extents needed, but only 0 available". sudo fdisk -l reports that I have 54G available, while sudo pvdisplay reports only 40G are in use. Why is lvextend failing?
