Hello all, While I figure out how to recover form a LVM problem I want to backup the complete partiton that has the LVM stuff on as well as the MBR. The firts two partitions on the drive are "regular" partition and the 3rd one is a LVM partition. I have a second hard drive with a spare partition with enough space. Could I use something like partimage or will a simple dd do? regards, Jan _______________________________________________ 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/
