Hello,
My thanks to everyone who has responded. I probably should have
mentioned this box doesn't have a cd-rom in it and it's not practical to put
one in, install was done via network. I read the tldp hard disk howto and
i've got both drives in the box. My problem is the original howto makes no
reference to lvm, when centos 4.4 installed that's what it used. So i need
to transfer the lvm over along with the data and enlarge partitions to fill
the available space on the new drive. And if possible i need to do this with
native tools.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.
