Re : lvm and multiboot

I have met with partition size problems before so this time I would use LVM. and since it will be a server so /var /srv etc will grow in size later on. at the same time I would like to have 50G left untouched possibly for another OS such as Mac, windows, other linux distro, etc.. I read something that it is not good for /boot and / to reside on lvm partitions. So my question is that how to use debian installer to partition the harddrive to suit my purpose? I am pretty familiar with normal debian install process but I am new to lvm and am not aware of any unexpeced results from lvm Considering I may need to do multi boot later on. So could any one offer me some insights into this? Thanks a million, Zhengquan Hi, In fact, if you want to use lvm you'v got to make sure that your volumes are activated before loading the kernel. This needs many handy and precise manipulations with grub. A better way is to create an ext3 or ext4 what ever (classic) /boot partition (with 250Mo for example) to boot then use the remaining disk space as lvm. This is than simply if using the lenny installer. Once at the patitionning phase choose lvm then the wisard take care of everything. Or at this phase go back and launch a shell from the menu of te installer, then do your partitionning using fdisk - don't forget to change the type of you lvm partition (I think 8e) with the commande (t ) from fdisk menu. After the partitionning done you can use pvcreate, vgcreate and lvcreate to construct your disk volume structure. This is a small picture but if you do googling you'll probably find more details. Hope it helps. bye. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

network down after a while with wpa_supplicant and radius auth.
Hi list, Has anyone experiments a loss of a connexion between a client and the wifi-network when using WPA2-enterprise (authentication with radius)? Well, in fact I m using a 3Com-router as access point, the PCs are shipped with a wifi-pci cards (evo-w54pci), the module that I m using is rt61 (ralink compile from a daily cvs version) and wpa_supplicant 0.5.10 compiled to with the support for ralink. The problem is that even when the authentication pass, the connexion goes down after a while. Or sometimes even the delivery of the IP address by the dhcp server don't succeed, witch mean that even the first connexion doesn't succeed. Can anybody help with this? thanks. _ Envoyez avec Yahoo!

Thanks for your time. You don't say if this is Sarge, Etch, Lenny, or Sid. Its important. Equally important, you should read the installation manual where it says what to do if you have a problem: the same as if you don't: send in an installation report. Since you have a problem, subscribe to debian-boot first where your email well get posted by the installation reports system. The people who lurk on that list are the people who write the installer and ensure that it boots. They will either know right away what to do, or will tell you what magical incantation to give the kernel so that it says something that will help them help you. Good luck. Doug. hi, Sometimes the kernel panic message is issued because the kernel etch-installer version is old, and you need a custom installer with newer kernel versio 2.6.21 and upper. you can try this installer http://mirror.home-dn.net/d-i/2.6.21/etch-custom-0720.iso I hope it will works. bye. -- thanks. fuzzy _ Ne gardez plus qu'une seule adresse mail !
