<div>Thanks! I haven't thought of mount bind. I just rechecked man mount and I think it will work just fine! </div>

<br></div>If you want to move the logical volumes from the disk couple<br>to the large disk, you could add the large disk to your<br>current LVM and then use pvmove to force the relocation of all<br>your stuff to the large disk. After that, you can use vgreduce<br>
to remove the two disks from the volume group (from three disks<br>to one).<br>

You can have something in a place you like and then have it appear<br>somewhere else too (in a place that the rpms like).<br>For example, my system has this in /etc/fstab:<br> /dev/sda9 /mnt/data reiserfs defaults 1 3<br>
/mnt/data/wwwoffle /var/cache/wwwoffle auto bind 0 0<br>
<div class="im"><br><br>><br>> I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts on this, I bet I'm not the only one<br>> doing something similar, but I guess this is kind of difficult<br>> to phrase for google.<br>
