Ahem, to fuss a bit, the BIOS is a lodestone that comes with the *PC* architecture. AMD-processor PC systems are similarly afflicted; while some Intel-processor systems (notably Itanium) are not. Someday we'll even see PC-class machines without a BIOS. So the comment about the likelihood of upgrading the BIOS is undoubtedly true. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
