Thank you, Aleksander!  All well.  Thanks for you explanations, presented
very easy to understand.

Only downtime, was to reboot once after fdisk.

# df -h
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
                       36G  5.7G   29G  17% /
/dev/hda1              99M   22M   73M  24% /boot
none                  506M     0  506M   0% /dev/shm

My commands were:

1. fdisk /dev/hda
2. init 6
3. pvresize
4. lvresize
5. ext2online
