Dear friends:
Using Centos 5.
I have two physical drives. During install, I made sure to check hdb as well as hda. Both were listed as partitions (which is correct). But my fstab file does not show hdb. How do I make sure that hdb has been formatted and is part of my file system. If hdb is not formatted, how do I format it, please. Sorry for the question. I am a newbie.

Thank you so much.

Use df or df -P to see where are filesystems identified by LABEL (boot in your case) Use pvs (and also vgs, lvs) to see LVM layout.

The VolGroup00-LogVol00 filesystem is likely spread across both drives. Looking at the size should give you a hint.
'lvm pvscan' will show you which physical devices are in each volume group.

No /usr/sbin in your path.

Without the - it does not load the profile, therefore does not change your path, or working directory.

The lvm program is not on the path of normal users. Use "su -" to switch to root and get root's environment. Then just do:
# lvm pvscan
to get the result you need. (don't use ./lvm - the program is not in the root directory)
