Steven, A little googling will help. I am running a gentoo box using raidtools with 3x200 Seagate Drives in a Raid5 array with LVM2 (I know - I need to convert to mdadm but not sure how). Here are a few links that helped me out - using LVM2. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/lvm2.xml http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ I am using /dev/md2 (/dev/vg0) as my music and video repository and it is ever growing so LVM is helpful to manage the size and expand when necessary. // Jeff -----Original Message----- From: linux-raid-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:linux-raid-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steven Joerger Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 6:39 PM To: linux-raid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: LVM on top of software raid5 Hello List, Can anyone point me to a decent guide for setting up LVM on a software raid 5. I'm particularly interested in being able to grow the size of the raid at some point. Thanks in advance.
