You are requesting about Logical Volume Manager ( LVM ) Exist in Linux, runs very well ( My laptop runs with LVM ) :D Note: "Windows 2000 can do something similar, can Linux do this?" I prefer to say: "HP-UX, AIX, Tru64 can do something similar when I was a child, can Linux do this?" ;) David Ballester Montolio Responsable de Sistemas y Comunicaciones Kern Pharma, S.L. www.kernpharma.com GNU! |---------+------------------------------> | | Fritz Whittington | | | <f.whittington@att.| | | net> | | | Enviado por: | | | fedora-list-admin@r| | | edhat.com | | | | | | | | | 30/01/2004 20:55 | | | Por favor, responda| | | a fedora-list | | | | |---------+------------------------------> >-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | Para: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx | | cc: | | Asunto: Re: Fewer partitions are better (Re: Disk Layout/Partitioning Practices) | >-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| <snip> On a related issue, is it possible to combine several drives/partitions into one logical Linux file system? In other words, if I have 3 hard drives, I might want to use one partition on hda for /boot, another partition on hdb for /swap, and use all remaining space on all other drives/partitions as the root fs. -- Fritz Whittington "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
