Yay :) Will have to test when I get home to see if the commands work, as I left the drive behind this morning. The script isn't in the rpm that's installed, which is weird. rpm -ql device-mapper /lib/libdevmapper.so.1.00 /sbin/dmsetup /usr/include/libdevmapper.h /usr/lib/libdevmapper.so /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-1.00.07 /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-1.00.07/COPYING /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-1.00.07/COPYING.LIB /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-1.00.07/README /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-1.00.07/VERSION /usr/share/man/man8/dmsetup.8.gz Thanks! _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
