When
I
physically
removed
the
drive
and
restarted
the
PC,
centos
would<br>>
not
boot
up
and
went
into
a
kernel
panic.
I'm
sure
I'm
supposed
to<br>>
somehow
unmount
the
thing
before
I
do
this,
and
that's
my
question
-
how<br>>
do
I
un-install
the
hard
drive
-
software
wise
-
so
that
on
next
boot<br>>
up,
centos
don't
go
crazy
looking
for
it?<br><br>If
the
machine
panics
at
boot
time,
there
is
a
good
chance
that
you<br>installed
with
LVM
and
its
got
both
the
drives
into
one
volume.
You
will<br>need
to
reinstall
that
second
harddrive,
then
work
out
the
process
of<br>shrinking
the
filesystem
down
to
only
1
drive,
then
remove
the
second<br>drive.
The
scope
of
this
work
might
be
too
much
for
an
email,
so
I
can<br>best
point
you
at
the
LVM
HowTo.
There
are
also
some
good
lvm
tips
in<br>the
CentOS5
docs
(
<a href="http://www.centos.org/docs/5/" target="_blank">http://www.centos.org/docs/5/</a>
)</div><br>OK this is what I have when I run mount - does it appear that<br>I have both drives on one volume?:<br><br>
