You need to use the device-mapper kernel module and LVM2. Please read the LVM Howto at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ - especially the LVM2 FAQ entries for information about LVM2. Also http://sources.redhat.com/lvm2/ and http://sources.redhat.com/dm/ will be useful. LVM2 will work with your LVM1 volumes. Regards, -- AJ Lewis Voice: 612-638-0500 Red Hat Inc.
