Use a partition tool such as gparted or cfdisk to change the types of the partitions to something else, then you could reformat them as LVM physical volumes, or ext4 or another filesystem as you see fit. If you are not using the HDDs for anything else yet at all, I'd suggest just erasing the entire partition table and putting new ones on. Any of the above partitioning tools could do that. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
