Then in that case, parted will certainly be able to rebuild the partition table. Of course, make sure to point it at the device that holds the partition (e.g., /dev/vg0/lv?, or whatever your scheme is). Beyond that, I can't really be any more help. You will need to read the parted docs, as it is a fairly complex tool, or use qtparted, though I am not sure how well qtparted measures up. -Roberto -- Roberto C.
