Is there any guide to convert a root filesystem to LVM2? - It is LVM2 stable enough?, or by now, and for a production system, is preferable LVM1? - Several times, I had to recover data from hard disks without LVM; in those cases, I boot with a live GNU/Linux CD, mount the partitions, and copy the files. Can this be done with disks with LVM?, how?, which live CD do you recommend for this task?. Thanks very much, tizo
