If you want to move the logical volumes from the disk couple to the large disk, you could add the large disk to your current LVM and then use pvmove to force the relocation of all your stuff to the large disk. After that, you can use vgreduce to remove the two disks from the volume group (from three disks to one). > Also, I want to have two partitions, one for the data and one for the > programs.

One thing you can do is to use the bind option when mounting. You can have something in a place you like and then have it appear somewhere else too (in a place that the rpms like). For example, my system has this in /etc/fstab: /dev/sda9 /mnt/data reiserfs defaults 1 3 /mnt/data/wwwoffle /var/cache/wwwoffle auto bind 0 0 > > I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts on this, I bet I'm not the only one > doing something similar, but I guess this is kind of difficult > to phrase for google. > > Thanks > > > > -- > ------------------------------ > /\_/\ > |O O| pepebuho@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:pepebuho@xxxxxxxxx> > ~~~~ Javier Perez > ~~~~ While the night runs > ~~~~ toward the day... > m m Pepebuho watches > from his high perch. > -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
