Subject: [gentoo-user] lvm2 questions
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2009 13:01:51 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a0811460906041201j53ab04c0lf224e9ff9bf02c42@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi group,

Creating LVM partitions on SSD and SD card using systemrescuecd-1.2.0
while following doc, 'Gentoo LVM2 installation'.  In the doc it says
to edit the 'filter =' statement in lvm.conf in order to scan the
correct devices. But just below it says to use #pvcreate with the
appropriate devices. But if you use pvcreate to specify the device
you're planning to partition what's the point in editing lvm.conf?
Edited it anyways.

Now have:
...
filter= [ "r|/dev/ndb.*|", "a|/dev/sd[ab]|" ] # only changed 'accept' line
...

/root % vgscan
    Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...

Well, no, it was more or less instant. There was no further output and
the prompt reappeared. Does this mean everything is cool or that
vgscan found nothing?

Maxim
