I just installed F8 fresh installation. The previous system (where the LVM volume where created was FC6). After I booted into F8. "fdisk -l" returns unusual /dev/dm-? devices. These seem to be the LVM's physical volume partitions. Not sure why they're being picked up here! Here's the full output
fdisk -l
