You can only use one on a given logical volume (aka partition), but you can, for example, use ext3 for /, ext2 for /usr, Reiserfs for /var, xfs for /opt, and jfs for /home. I wouldn't do this on a heavily loaded production server, but on a test system there's no reason at all you can't do this. -- David Johnston <david@littlebald.com> Little Bald Consulting, LLC _______________________________________________ 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/
