Hello, I created on my boot disk a partition with parted (/dev/sda6). But when I want to create a pv with that partition, no way, it does not work. It seems that the pvcreate command still use the MBR informations :-( Did anybody have a clue (or better, a solution) to solve this issue ? Thank's, Eric. ----------------------------------------- [root@pss913 /]# fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 64 heads, 32 sectors, 34732 cylinders Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 34733 35566479+ ee EFI GPT Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary: phys=(1023, 254, 63) should be (1023, 63, 32) [root@pss913 /]# parted /dev/sda print Disk geometry for /dev/sda: 0.000-34732.890 megabytes Disk label type: GPT Minor Start End Filesystem Name Flags 1 0.017 100.000 FAT boot, lba 2 100.000 500.000 FAT hp-service, lba 3 500.000 2548.000 ext3 lba 4 2548.000 4596.000 linux-swap lba 5 4596.000 6644.000 ext3 lba 6 6645.000 34732.874 lvm, lba [root@pss913 /]# pvcreate /dev/sda6 pvcreate pvcreate -- extended partition "/dev/sda6" doesn't exist pvcreate [-d|--debug] [-f[f]|--force [--force]] [-h|--help] [-y|--yes] [-v|--verbose] [-V|--version] PhysicalVolume [PhysicalVolume...] ----------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ 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/
