Hi!
I have two wishes concerning LVM support that would make Knoppix much more useful as a recovery CD:
*) LVM's vgscan requires some space in /etc to create lvmtab and lvmtab.d.
Currently there is not enough space avaliable to create those files.
Therefore I have to use the following procedure to move /etc to the ramdisk:
cp -a /etc /ramdisk
mount --bind /ramdisk/etc /etc
vgscan
If /etc had some free space avaliable, this procedure would be easier as the first two
steps could be skipped.
*) LVM2 support in addition to LVM1 would be great for the 2.6 kernel!
(especially as Fedora Core 2 includes LVM2!)
Cheers,
