Another basic question regarding the use of lvm. If I have traditionally partitioned harddrive running debian Etch, can I make those partitions use lvm without loosing any data? I have been reading the HOWTO at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ and it does not mention whether all these commands vgcreate etc., work destructively or non-destructively. Any ideas? thanks raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jumpstart your tech career.
