[linux-lvm] Help configuring LVM

[Jon Lacey]

Hi, I have looked at the HOWTO's and FAQ's and cannot seem to solve my
problem, maybe it's me.

 

I do not seem, while installing Slackware 8, to be able to build LVM into
the install, so I was hoping to be able to do a minimal install and then add
a logical volume and move me data.

 

I have installed Slackware (a very basic setup) as:

/dev/hda1 100 MB mounted as /boot

/dev/hda2 200 MB as Swap

/dev/hda3 800MB mounted as /

 

I have three more drives, all 1 GIG drives. /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1 /dev/hdd1 

What I would like to do is to amalgamate them all into one large volume,
include /dev/hda3 as part of the volume and have it all mounted as /

 

So I hope to end up with a volume group, say vg1, consisting of a single
volume, say vol1, copy data over from /dev/hda3 and then mount vol1 as /

 

Is there anywhere I can go to see an example of doing this/ or can someone
help.

 

 

Thanks

Jon L.
