Subject: Re: Move root from LVM to Non-LVM File System

Generally I'm with Christian on this one.
The procedure Mark linked is appropriate for (most) *sub*-directories of
the the root - not the entire root itself. The pseudo directories need
to be excluded, and things like logs, even in single user, are
problematic - that may not be an issue on test systems.
Unless the VGs and/or LVs are the same name I'd do it from another
system - else I might be inclined to figure out what needs to be
excluded and try a copy from the running system.
Has plenty of scope to get ugly.
