Hi!
Saturday morning, rain, girlfriend doing her hair, what else to do :P
I tried to create an LVM volume group and run into something strange.
- With fdisk I created a new Sun label, this renders you with three
partitions. After changing slice 1 to type LVM you end up with this:
Disk /dev/sdb (Sun disk label): 255 heads, 63 sectors, 56065 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Flag Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 0 121595 976711837+ 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sdb2 u 121595 121601 48195 82 Linux swap
/dev/sdb3 0 121601 976760032+ 5 Whole disk
FWIW, I think this is covered here:
