Once this is done you should be able to reboot and recover you old data. You will notice that you have a new fstab. After you have everyting saved to a back up. Then you can replace disks / rename them and use the same scheme to restore you system to use LVM. A hard way around the apple tree but sometimes it's desperate measures by desperate men.

A thing to try is to run an installation under VMware so you can examine stuff external to the OS. On a Linux Box, install VMware, in VMware install the test copy of Linux. You can run the Test copy as usual and from the outside you can examine the hardware usage. Larry Linder On Saturday 20

Serious New Install problem

magic /home directory. It looks like to use SL you have to assign a Tera byte drives to /home and let the garbage pile up, Without much hope of doing an intelligent back up What we are planning to do till we can get this sorted out is to install Open Suse 9.3 as 10.3 screwed up with LVM trash.

have to assume that SL 5.3 has a broken SATA driver or ? Is there anyway to set up a debug for the installation. Since it happens very early in the install it may not be very big file or RAM area. Any Ideas on how to find the answere. Larry Linder On Friday 10 July 2009 09:46, you wrote: > La
