I then wanted to remove it and put it in partition 4 instead. (More like Neil's setup.) However, the system keeps finding the old vg1 volume group. I went so far as to remove all partitions, put on a new partition, make a new file system, then remove that filesystem and do my final ones with LVM2 in partition 4 but the system still finds the old vg1 volume group and complains that sda3 is too small. I guess this is in the partition table? If so how do I completely remove the LVM2 data and set the table back to default? Thanks in advance, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
