Unable to resize boot drive

Hey all,

As the title says I can’t resize my boot drive.

I originally had my main nvme driver with a 200gig partition for the OS and 800 for spare space on a separate partition.

Since I got a second drive I have moved my storage to that and was able to delete the second partition on the first drive.

I tried using Gnome Disks to resize the main OS partition but I got the following error:

Error resizing filesystem on /dev/nvme1n1p4: Process reported exit code 1: ERROR: unable to resize ‘/sysroot’: Read-only file system (udisks-error0quark, 0)

Weirdly after getting this error the drive in Gnome Disks shows that it has been expanded to the size I asked but the free space has not changed and remains low.

I tried searching for an answer but cannot find anything on how I can fix this.

try booting from a live iso on a usb drive and resizing your main drive from there

Once you expand the partition, you will have to expand the filesystem. Sorry for the somewhat late delay, but I just saw this.
