Just started
working with LVM.
I have 2 6GB
IDE drives. Had test logical volumes working.
Destroyed
and attempted to create new PVs, VGs, LVs.
I can create
PVs, and VGs but I get a segmentation violation/core dump
when trying
to create LVs.
I have
/dev/hdb1 and /dev/hdb2 assigned to a VG.
When I try
to create an LV with lvcreate it errors out.
The curious
thing for me is the pvdisplay.. the PVs have a
status of
NOT Available. I am trying to determine why this would be.
Here is what
I have:
