This is what we recommend as well. Note also here that / is NOT a LVM. If/when something chokes, it's a lot easier to fix stuff if you don't need to get LVM working for the root first, especially if you clone systems from a template and all the LVM groups have the same names in all the machines. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
