I am so frustrated with this that I may be doing things without sense. But let me try to be clearer: I am trying to boot in the F7 partition, which is in /dev/sdc2 and /dev/sdc3 (it is lvm). What precisely should I do in order to be successful with booting in it? Paul -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
