Greetings,

I am planning a root and branch cleanup and re-install of my computer's
Linux O/S.
I have done a dd copy of the partitions but find to my dismay that I cannot
mount the resultant image file using the mount command. It complains about
the LVM file image being an unknown format type.

I have searched far and wide for help, but the necessary incantation must
reserved for the uber guru cognoscenti, or the mounting a LVM disk image
file is simply not possible.

Please help. While I am not in extremis, being able to mount the partition
image file would save me task of having to save the disk contents over
again as umpteen thousand files one by one.

TIA

Christopher Sawtell
