Hi RHKR, Thank you. This is an interesting way to store the broken system. It will be like a junk yard that I can copy out of. Partitioning will be a challenge. Currently, this is laptop runs LVM. I have two groups. The system is on one, the other I plan on using for VM storage. I could break the one for VMs into groups for file systems. I am not sure how to use this. Once I have these different groups, if I want to rebuild, I will need to have the new system installed to one of the unused VGs. I have a quandary about this each time I rebuild, I have a challenge with the Debian installer on where to put the new system. It seem like I rebuild the LVM each time which means I would wipe out the previous system. Ray Ray
