Hello List,
I'm currently using Kernel 2.4.0-test10 with LVM 0.8final ...
I have a 55Gig LVM-Partition (with reiserfs) and no backup ....
(Yes I know, but there's no money for a poor student to backup ...)
Now I want to use the final 2.4.0 and it is now a fact, that there
is v0.9 in it. (why it is, is another question...)
I ask now, what I can do ...
It seems that they both are not compatible, as the vgscan under
2.4.0fin brings me a protocol error ...
Is there a way to "downpatch" the kernel to lvm0.8 ???
or better:
can I convert the volume to 0.9 without data-loss ???
Thanx in advance ... Jan
PS: Please don't tell me all the reasons, why I need a backup.
I know it myself, but there is at the moment no way ....
