I've just created a test scenerio using a test box (under vmware) and for some reason, this one can't get dm-mirror. Where can I get dm-mirror? For the original box, as I mentioned, I don't have any free PE to move the existing data to. As such, it won't let me pvmove anything. (after some trouble, I managed to reduce/remove the physical disk - Thanks) BTW, how do I remove _all_ physical volumes? eg: start out clean? -- Ow Mun Heng <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
