Of the PV, of the disk (/dev/hde), of something else ... ? If it's the first 1K of /dev/hde, you've probably only lost the partition table, which you could re-create with fdisk, presuming you remember exactly how your disk was partitioned (i.e. where your PV was). Remember to set the type of the partition correctly (8e - Linux LVM). I'm not sure what the beginning of a PV contains and whether there's a simple way to restore that ... Hope that helps, Holger _______________________________________________ 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/
