Clint, When I try to install lvm I get: W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/m/mdadm/mdadm_2.4.1-6ubuntu5.2_i386.deb 302 Moved Temporarily [IP: 195.248.90.35 80]
Then it stops and I can't install any of the components. I don't know Ubuntu well enough to know where to go from here. -Daniel On 1/12/07, Clint Savage <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
With Ubuntu, you'll probably first need to install lvm. Once you've done that run # vgscan Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Found volume group "gen" using metadata type lvm2 Found volume group "os" using metadata type lvm2 I have two. If I want to then activate that device then I run: # vgchange -a y gen Afterwhich I'll have a device like so # lvdisplay gen --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/gen/share VG Name gen LV UUID .. snip .. Block device 253:2 Note the LV Name line, that corresponds to what can be considered your device. Mount it as normal mount /dev/gen/share /mnt And you are up and running.
