Of course; the only problem is that /proc/mounts still lists the old name so an update-grub still uses the old name in /boot/grub/grub.cfg, so after a reboot, I have to manually edit the command to point to the new name to boot, then re-run update-grub so subsequent boots work right. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJUtHr/AAoJENRVrw2cjl5RzUAH/0T7snlgVK287JCh8lwoWXLr SWif87Si5DxliTxMpkxaCbxtLfv8WgajJa49wbDCuHRdA9YR1LpcZXMzJZxrstBZ AyJg+iMkUM2+VgfC6QpuCEDbN7C43jONSHiiEuWT+bcPfY9kqmsUted6/SspV2tq dltiKPrFgsktQYZVIynEZZwKvbX/jV13zbusdQJDE8nqRtOO0grYApi1qwEvxdvd MdBZXUeJZahCMFu0UE3MCdIznLFUFLgAbS5J2Mld8KB3hJV9I55Eoo6K6IIeq77+ wiq/8aCcODYjqClw6LEl1uRRPgPBJFLyeZ8/cbc6EUZke3pfK9adVCU2Vqbqg6E= =fsnN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 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/
