But it is more just something I would like to do, not that I feel I need to. It *is* possible, right? My system isn't mission critical and LVM is something I have never messed with before, so I figured why not go all the way and just use all my disks as PVs. Your recommendation would be to keep root and swap out of LVM, and just mount /usr /var /home as LVs? Any idea why lvmcreate_initrd was failing? — Cameron _______________________________________________ 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/
