OK - about 6 hours, a destroyed (and miraculously recovered) volume group, 27
reboots, 6 BIOS changes, and the sacrifice of three chickens and a bottle of
good whiskey later, it's all back to the working condition it was in before
anaconda started mucking with my disk drives - I don't think the code which
converted the hd stuff to sd was written to cope with the multiple IDE and SATA
drives which are incestuously coupled by LVM on my system.
Andy, thanks for the help, you sent me down the right track there.
If you're ever in Johannesburg, I owe you a couple.

THEOREM: VI is perfect.
PROOF: VI in roman numerals is 6. The natural numbers < 6 which divide 6 are
1, 2, and 3. 1+2+3 = 6. So 6 is a perfect number. Therefore, VI is perfect.
