Hi there
I've successfully setup LVM2.2.00.08 and
device-mapper.1.00.07 on a Slackware 9.1 host with Linux
2.6.1. I have a question or two:
1) Would a shutdown error something like the following, be
attributed to LVM and/or device-mapper?
/proc/devices: fopen failed - no such file or directory
2) Why do I see, for example, a /dev/mapper/v01-home entry,
instead of /dev/v01/home, when running 'df' and 'mount'? I
see that /dev/mapper/v01/home symlinks to
/dev/mapper/v01-home, which must account for this, though I
thought that because I'd specified /dev/v01/home, that it'd
appear as such? Not that this really matters I suppose ;-)
$ df -h | grep v01
/dev/mapper/v01-home 2.9G 444M 2.4G 16% /home
/dev/mapper/v01-usr 2.0G 1.1G 760M 60% /usr
/dev/mapper/v01-var 985M 30M 906M 4% /var
$ mount | grep v01
/dev/mapper/v01-home on /home type ext3 (rw)
/dev/mapper/v01-usr on /usr type ext3 (rw)
/dev/mapper/v01-var on /var type ext3 (rw)
3) Does anyone know when LVM2 specific docs, such as a
HOWTO and FAQ will be available?
Thanks
Dale
