OK. Let me see if I get some of this now. Probably not but I have to
start somewhere. I create hda1 and hda2 using cfdisk like usual. Then
use the evmsgui to create the rest. I'll stop there for a while. See
if I am on the right track so far. I'm going to play with hdb for a bit
first. See if I can get it to boot up.
I plan to make it boot without the initrd thing if I can. I have read
of folks having "issues" with it for some reason. My luck is not that
good.
I have the kernel made but I hate loosing my 3 weeks of uptime. Oh, I
also noticed that webmin supports LVM. It don't like EVMS though. I
get a boo boo message. Oh well.
Thanks
Dale
