Hello, I'm having trouble setting up physical volumes. caffeine:~# pvcreate /dev/hdd1 pvcreate -- physical volume "/dev/hdd1" successfully created caffeine:~# pvscan pvscan -- reading all physical volumes (this may take a while...) pvscan -- ERROR "pv_read(): read" reading physical volumes After looking at debug messages, I think it is related to my ide cdrom (/dev/hdc). Does this seem to be the case? Is there a way to ignore /dev/hdc? (attached is output from pvscan -d) (2.2.18, lvm 1.0.4) -Todd p.s. please cc:
