Hi all,
This is wrt f10.
I have an 80G drive. When I installed f10 I chose a custom layout for it.
My intent was to have a separate /boot partition, swap partition, and 4
lvms of approx. 20G each.
When all was said and done the drive ended up looking like this:
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 2435 19454715 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 2436 4857 19454715 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sda4 4858 9964 41021977+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 4858 7279 19454683+ 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sda6 7280 7406 1020096 82 Linux swap /
Solaris
/dev/sda7 7407 9964 20547103+ 8e Linux LVM
Certainly not what I intended.
Tried lvdisplay and got no results. Tried lvscan first then lvdisplay and
got the same outcome. vgdisplay, ditto. pvdisplay, nada. fdisk seems to
think there are logical volumes.
cat /etc/mtab and I see this: /dev/mapper/pdc_gdgdgcfhp1 (and 2). In fact
in /dev/mapper there are 9 of these.
Anybody know where this is documented? Is lvm dead? Inquiring minds want
to know ;)
Thanks for any insight,
Mike Wright
I think what you really want is one volume group and four logical volumes. I
think you created 3 volume groups but perhaps someone with more LVM
experience would know better.
Been using and enjoying lvm2 for quite a while. What you describe is
exactly what I wanted.
I thought I'd done this correctly. Done it many times before. I guess
I screwed it up but wasn't sure whether it was me or the new installer.
Thanx,
:m)
