seems to me, that you are posting to several groups always with the
same questions. Seems to me too, that you are not doing your homework:
go and inform yourself about lvm and how it works and how you can use
it. I think, people in Usenet are willing to help, but they expect,
that you by yourself is doing everything, to get basic information
about the things you ask. I have not the impression, you do. But why
should we do your work? For that reason -- sorry -- you will walk
straight on into my killfile now. Bye.
