Hi, I have tow disks(hda and hdb) where tow partitions(hda2 and hdb1) a part of one LVM group VG01. Now disk hdb has crashed and I'am trying to save the data on hdb1 to another disk. I tried with knoppix dumping(dd) hda2(works) and hdb1(don't work) and I also tried activating the lvm group and dd the lvm volume but when dd comes to hdb1 the disk just hacks and sounds noisy :-P What should I do? /h _______________________________________________ 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/
