I don't like LVM. I used it for a year or two, but then I had a disaster, and the LVM partitions became inaccessible. With today's large disks, there is rarely if ever any need to re-size. And I don't see the point of spreading a file-system over several disks. So for me the disadvantages of LVM outweigh the advantages. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
