Actually, another option is to put the legacy OS into a VM where it can then inherit some of the features of Linux, including LVM support. Then you can LVM this external drive instead of partitioning it, and then make an LV (or two or three or whatever) to use as backing for the VM, and then those VMs will see each LV as a drive, which you can partition and format with that legacy OS's tools however you want. Or use qcow2. Lots of options. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
