The partition type codes are specific to the MSDOS MBR partition table.
They are meaningless in other partitioning schemes.
so its impossible to create such a Type 8e "lvm" Partition on a GPT
labeled drive?
so how to make a type 8e partition on my GPT Disk-Drive using parted ???
and if not possible to creat a Type 8e (lvm) partition with parted..
WHAT ELSE partition type should i create so i can put a lvm volume on ?
It doesn't actually matter; the lvm2 tools have never checked the
partition code used (it's more-or-less "documentation" nowadays).
u mean i could create/use ANY type of partition to use as a "lvm
container" ? like ext3 or swap ?
Reasonable enough but just create a standard partition on the GPT
labeled drive and use that.
please define "standard partition"
and what if i create an ext3 partition as a container for an lvm-PV - am
i required to set that lvm flag thingy within the partition table ? or
whatfor is that flag then ?
thanks fer help!

Axel
