I am trying to resize an encrypted physical volume so that I have free space to make a dual boot system.
So far, I've successfully decrypted the PV, resized the filesystem and the LVs but when I try to resize the PV I run into issues relating to the sector extents of my LVs.

In ubuntu 19.10 I followed the example here.
The keyfile is at the root of usb key filesystem. usbkey has uuid yyyy.
the /etc/crypttab is like this:
encrypted UUID=xxxx /keyfile:UUID=yyyy luks,keyfile-timeout=60,x-systemd.device-timeout=2min
The automatically generated generator is /run/syste...
I PM'd some of the top upvoted users of the partitioning tag about the bounty, but none of them posted an answer to the bounty question, so I answered it myself. The tricky element in this question as I see it is Windows Boot Manager. If there was just a single boot on a new disk, then Boot-Repair would be able to create a new EFI System Partition that grub would recognize, however the trick in this question is that Windows in the dual boot has to recognize the EFI System Partition too.

Nope, I'm here because I have a question about Ubuntu ;)
So basically, I have a desktop computer running Ubuntu that currently uses an SSD as its main storage drive, and I'd like to convert it to an SSD caching setup with an HDD as the main drive.
Currently, there's a 250 GB NVMe SSD in the system; my plan is to replace it with a 500 GB NVMe SSD and a 4 TB HDD, with the new SSD acting as a cache.
I'd like to have the HDD as the main drive, though, if possible. I don't like having to work with two drives, seeing as multiple people use this computer.
all of my OS, SWAP, music, docs, config fit on the SSD and only the videos and ebooks: (the hogs in terms of storage) are symlinked to the HDD and I have enough RAM to make video copies go into the cache at all times as I store TV series in 960x540 and movies in 1280*720 only except just a feW.
@gparyani with the symlinks it does look like one drive.
(but I get your point: you want everything to be fast...)
@gparyani Sorry, I'm of no use to you because re-installing was not worth my while, so I never pursued it any further...
I'm using systemd automount now as well, so even NAS drives are symlinked and the directory is just empty when I'm on the road...
I am using an Ubuntu 18.04 which was Preinstalled on my dell vostro 5490 and i installed kde Plasma using this Tutorial. Now, as i logged in to my Plasma I've figured out that the audio Is detected in system settings as one sound card (sof-skl_hda_card) with multiple outputs:
