We can only say that device-mapper is being used somehow. It could be LVM, EVMS2, dmraid, or a few other things. Use dmsetup (info,ls,status,targets) as well as the sysfs block slave entries on dm-* to figure it out from scratch. (or at a higher level, try the LVM tools etc). -- Robin Hugh Johnson Gentoo Linux Developer E-Mail : robbat2@xxxxxxxxxx GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85
