Hey Devan, i recently set up LVM and screwed it up twice. :) it wasn't too difficult to start over after figuring out how to delete the partitions/volumes i had created. a good guide is here: http://knoppmythwiki.homelinux.org/index.php?page=LvmHowTo i used XFS instead of ext3. both XFS and JFS are optimized for large file sizes, such as video, so they are probably a better choice that ext3. they are much more reliable now than they were a year or so ago. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
