I just extended size for my /boot partition and mounted it as ext4. I did steps below:

  1. Added new disk on vmware
  2. Created partition with fdisk
  3. Created filesystem ext4 with mkfs command on /dev/sdb1
  4. copied content from /dev/sda2 (old boot) to /dev/sdb1 (new boot)
  5. run e2fsck on /dev/sdb1
  6. run resize2fs on /dev/sdb1
  7. mounted /dev/sdb1 on /boot
  8. Added new entry in fstab and rebooted system

System is rebooting with correct disk mounted to /boot and with df -hT command it shows ext4 filesystem however blkid command show ext2 and fdisk still shows that boot is on /dev/sda2

  • root@ubuntu:~# df -hT | grep boot

  • /dev/sdb1 ext4 5.0G 63M 4.7G 2% /boot

  • root@ubuntu:~# blkid | grep ext2

  • /dev/sda2: UUID="9e20c640-325e-4aa2-961c-ece5c4013133" TYPE="ext2" PARTUUID="42d33685-02"

Any suggestions?

Might be trivial but did you comment out the origin boot partition? You only mention that you added the new one, but didn't say anything about removing the old!

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
