The USB significantly smaller. HD is about 150GB and USB is about 8 GB
I think I can get into LVM and shrink the size? Is that possible?

Here is the partition table:
Root is only used about 2.0 GB total usage only about ~ 5 GB

Code:

Filesystem                    Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/ubuntu2--vg-root  145G  2.0G  135G   2% /
udev                          994M  4.0K  994M   1% /dev
tmpfs                         401M  340K  401M   1% /run
none                          5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
none                         1003M     0 1003M   0% /run/shm
/dev/sda1                     236M   31M  193M  14% /boot
