Was able to read and write to it with no trouble. I followed the instructions here, except with just one IDE partition, /dev/hda1 that I set to have type "Linux LVM": http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/recipethreescsi.html I also added a line in my /etc/fstab: /dev/myvg/mylv /mnt/bigdisk ext3 defaults 1 0 However, when the machine is rebooted, it is unable to mount this volume. In addition, the machine seems to "forget" about any PVs, VGs, and LVs that were created. What am I missing? Thanks in advance, Dave -- Email: david.w.h.chin@gmail.com
