Hallo, How do you fix an incorrect Block Device assignment? When I hooked the harddrive from an old computer into my newer one (both had lvm partitions), I got the message that certain IDs were duplicated. So I ran vgscan -f to assign new IDs. However, vgscan -f duplicated the Block Device on two of the logical volumes. The outcome is that when I mount the first one, I only get access to the second one. :( I would show the output of lvdisplay & friends, but I can't get an internet connection from that computer anymore because of this. *grin* Basically: /dev/toro1/home, block device 58:5 /dev/toro1/var, block device 58:6 /dev/toro1/projekte, block device 58:7 /dev/toro1/usr, block device 58:8 /dev/toro1/local, block device 58:9 /dev/toro1/fileserver, block device 58:5 Either the drive I added had 5 lv's, and so vgscan didn't reassign the 6th on the first drive (i.e., /dev/toro1/fileserver), or it cycled back around after 58:9 for some reason. Can anyone tell me how to get my home back??? ;) Many thanks in advance!
