I have always used = an lvm installation guide that was a "companion" to
the handbook. T= hat is it would tell you how to augment each handbook
installation c= hapter for lvm (actually lvm2).

I can't find this documentatio= n now on gentoo.org. There is a big wi= ki
page, but that is different as are daniel's 2-volume "learning li= nux
lvm".

The closest I found is the raid+lvm quick insta= ll guide, but i would be
happier with the one I have used often in t= he past.

Any clues (I am emotionally prepared to learn that it is right there on
the installation web page, but my ey= es and search commands are
deficient).

thanks,

Allan,

Use the raid+LVM guide and skip all = the raid steps.

Yes, that is w= hat I will be doing; but it is not the same as the "companion"
and h= ence less familiar to me. Also the wiki certainly does help.
I have= n't studied the raid+LVM closely yet but a quick look didn't
reveal = how to interrupt the installation, shut off the machine, and
continu= e later.

Nonetheless, it is doubtless all there; just a loss o= f familiarity.

thanks,
allan



To continue, see my other email.
# vgchange -ay
That command will enable all the LVs it can find.
It works for me on all recent (last 2 years at least) installs with the s= ysrescuecd.
