If you want to be sure that nothing exists on the volumes in the LVM, send a new posting with the title related to activating LVM and finding out how to mount these partitions. I believe that pvscan will show you the physical volumes contained in the Logical volume. lvscan should show you the Logical volumes. I avoid LVMs mostly so I know little about managing the LVMs.
Thanks, Jim. I am now sure that there is nothing in hde2. Paul
