Description Eric Blake 2010-09-24 17:21:47 UTC
Description of problem:
virt-resize is useless on a 32-bit host

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libguestfs-1.5.18-1.fc14.2.i686
libguestfs-tools-1.5.18-1.fc14.2.i686


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. virt-resize --help (or any actual resize command attempt)
  
Actual results:
# virt-resize --help
virt-resize: sorry this program does not work on a 32 bit host


Expected results:
disk image management is not unique to 64-bit hosts.  virt-resize should be able to operate when run on a 32-bit host, since all of the underlying tools used during resizing, such as parted, lvm, and so forth, all have 32-bit counterparts.
