well the problem currently is that i can not format the LV with ext2 or reiserfs in the beginning i could access the LV only with IBM's JFS and i had troubles mounting it with XFS but i've upgraded to 2.4.10-pre2-xfs-cvs and now i have no problem with XFS but i still have the problem with ext2 and reiserfs which i think is not normal and i'm wondering whether it's safe to use the LV i used e2fsprogs-1.23 and 1.24 and reiserfs progs 3.x.0j but when i try to format the LV mke2fs and mkreiserfs segfaults and i can format normal partitions and software raid with mke2fs and mkreiserfs the VG : /dev/hdh10 /dev/md6 software linear RAID /dev/md7 software linear RAID the LV's are striped over the 3 PV's Luca Berra wrote: >On Tue, Sep 04, 2001 at 07:08:10PM +0200, svetljo wrote: > >>if smbd take a look at all meseages with sender svetljo and with subject >>releated to PB's with LVM on software RAID >> i think he'll get the idea what is all about >> >OK i am using lvm over softraid >can you please do a recap. > >L. >
