LVM and EVMS are not directly comparable. EVMS is a full volume
management system which can manage LVM volumes. I used EVMS to manage my
disks and part of that was creating LVM2 volumes under EVMS. To me EVMS

I know how to use `command`, but the problem is that i read blah from file.
blah=`head -n x file|tail -n 1` and in the file i have lines `pwd`/blah.
