The /dev/evms is puzzle for me too. I don't use it so my knowledge is only from here: http://evms.sourceforge.net/ and I really don't want to learn much about it for single or double disk computers that I use at the moment. To wipe off the disk what has to be used: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/evms/sdb bs=512 count=1 that will take care of MBR or dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/evms/sdb bs=1M that will take care of whole disk. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
