Re: How to mount existing lvm drive on multi boot sytem

Thanks Laurentiu. Looking at the docs, it sounds like I want to avoid using 
vgexport/import because I still want to use it from my FC3 system, at least 
until I finish getting the Fedora 7 partition all set up (it's a MythTV 
server). If I run vgscan on it instead, will that make any changes to the 
volume that would prevent me from booting back into FC3 and mounting it from 
there?
