Is there a way to avoid this?.
If you have multiple partitions, such that you can put the ISO on one and do the initial installation into LVM on the other, then once you have the new installation up and running, you can format the old partition (with the ISO on it) as an LVM physical volume and add it to your volume group to end up with a volume group pretty much the same as if you'd installed with just one larger PV. -- Jonathan Dowland -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
