Now, I have a large corpus of email I'd like to transfer over to the f8 install, but apparently the lack of a bios extension prevents the sata disk from being seen when booted to FC6. It would be much simpler if I could have MAKEDEV or udev, make a "/dev/VolGroup01" tree when fc6 is booted, however I can't see how that would be done. F8 does see the old drives, all are sdx as opposed to hdx drives, and I can mount the fc6 boot partition while running f8. But my attempts to mount it all failed cuz there apparently can be only 1 VolGroup0X at a time. Can someone tell me how to mount the fc6 slash to a mountpoint of f8? Or how to mount the f8 VolGroup01 onto fc6? Thanks. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
