Subject: /proc/partitions for LVM
Date: Wed, 22 Nov 2000 16:05:39 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3A1C3523.A111CDD9@fsc-usa.com> (raw)
Question about /proc/partitions and LVM. LVM devices in
/proc/partitions currently show up as lvma, lvmb, etc, depending on
their device number. This breaks things like mount by filesystem
name. Back when LVM existed as a patch, I believe there was some
support in fs/partitions/check.c for showing the proper name for
the device (something like <vgname>/<lvname>).
Are their any plans for something like this to be added
or is their a reason it was taken out?
BTW, 2.4.0-test11 is the first "perfect" kernel for me. It
finally has everything I use working correctly. (well, with a
small raid5 patch, anyway).
