Question : Why is lvm looking for this block major 43 device [ nbd ]. Does it scan all the block major devices to locate pv's. I am using LVM 1.0.8 on RHEL 3. -- Thanks -Sachin ----------------------------------- Sachin Sant Linux Technology Center IBM Software Lab Bangalore, INDIA. sachinp@in.ibm.com Ph: 91-80-5044647 -----------------------------------
