 Thanks Phil. 421 on this box. Nice to know!

All of the LVM commands are hidden into lvm command shell, too.

On this URL:

there is a description of linux rescue which includes the following:

 From the prompt, you can run many useful commands, such as:

   ssh, scp, and ping if the network is started

   dump and restore for users with tape drives

   parted and fdisk for managing partitions

   rpm for installing or upgrading software

   joe for editing configuration files

Phil: Thank you for that information! I will boot linux rescue and
look at the list. 438 is a huge number, compared to the few mentioned
by upstream, in the  documentation. Lanny
