Any error there appears to be fatal. I'm able to mount an LVM partition without problem: --------------------------- [root@alfred tim]# mount /dev/VolGroup00/opt /mnt [root@alfred tim]# ls /mnt lost+found SDK sun --------------------------- I don't see that there would be any problem if the mount didn't work. My fstab reads in part: --------------------------- /dev/VolGroup00/slash / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot1 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/VolGroup00/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2 ... --------------------------- I take it from this that the LVM partition is ext3. My grub.conf stanza reads --------------------------- title Fedora (2.6.23.1-21.fc7) root (hd1,1) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.23.1-21.fc7 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/slash noipv6 initrd /initrd-2.6.23.1-21.fc7.img --------------------------- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
