2007-05-21 Thread David Fuchs
dear all, a while back I posted to this list because my file systems on LVM over RAID1 would not mount cleanly anymore after upgrade from sarge to etch. this weekend I had time to poke around in the data on both the disks, and found out what was wrong. as it turns out, since almost a year, *no*
