Re: [CentOS] Partitioning with LVM

/boot isn't allowed to be on a LVM, RAID 1 at most.

I think manual partitioning from fdisk will allow it anyway ;)

I'll keep in mind the problem of unmounting and fsck if I ever run into it. Although, what do you do after booting from Knoppix?

It's changed a bit from Knoppix 4, 5, and 5.1. Basically I boot into runlevel 3 and get lvm started either through lvmchage -a (I think) or running the init script. This will activate any lvm partitions that Knoppix can find, but doesn't mount them.

then I can use e2fsck (or equivalent) to fixup or resize any lvm partitions.
