It won't even let me mount the lvm partition, what's with that? What is the reasoning for all these changes? Can anyone mount their core3 partition? I noticed the partition changes during the install and just thought I'd try out the new way, but I'm a little confused. Is there anything in the release notes or a howto for this new way?
