Hi everyone! I've been reading this list for a while and I'm thinking that the best way to do backups is using LVM snapshots as discussed here several times. The problem is that when i use a LVM logical volume as windows disk, windows writes the partition table onto the LV so the LV itself is not a partition - it's a whole disk. lvm/device-mapper does not create the partition devices in /dev so i cannot mount/access the ntfs partitions with anything but fdisk, and i would like to use ntfsclone or similar. Is there any way around this? Milan _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users |
