Hi Gurus! I have a system with several VGs (none spanning across physical disks). Installed systems are SuSE 7.2, which I use most of the time, and SuSE 7.3. After a hard disk failure, I meddling with some of the VGs (data recovery and the like on new hard disk onto new VGs). The VG names on the broken disk I have not re-used on the new disk, but chose new names. I did all this from SuSE 7.2. Yesterday, after some time, I tried to boot SuSE 7.3. During bootup, vgscan secfaulted, leaving me without /usr, /opt and /home, which is not really useful. What do I need to do to recover? At least most of the VGs are used by both systems and I do not want to destroy them. Do I probably need to remove some files which are in the way? All kernes, tools etc are from the two SuSE distributions. Regards, Gunther -- Dipl.-Ing.
