@DustinB3403 Correct. I thought that was best practice? Correct me if I am wrong please.
It was the better choice, all you have to do is extend it.

Yeah, trying to find some good instructions on that now.

So to test, I just went through a basic 18.04 install, setup LVM and my file system layout is completely different. It allocated the entire 100GB I setup to /dev/sda1.
You must've done something custom to get this.

Crap
Did you do a netinstall? (I did)Well, I just need to get it expanded for now.

No, not net install, minimal desktop.

Maybe netinstall is different?

Seems like I should just be able to extend LVM across the whole drive, but I can't find a way to do it...
-
@Curtis can you show me the output of ...
lvdisplay vgdisplay -

LVM is across the whole drive, that's not the issue.

Seems like / was only setup for 4GB... Why?
Probably to leave room for other things to be configured

No, the volume
Then the filesystem.What kind of filesystem is it? EXT4? XFS?

Whatever the default for a netinstall is. Is there a command to check?

Tried as root, and got this:
/etc/lvm/archive/.lvm_server_2674_604287443: write error failed: No space left on device

The error tells you exactly why it's failing. Clean up some space, /var/log/ would be a good place to start. Then re-run that command.

Would this work?
find /var/log -type f -delete
