lvm on a brand-new server
I thinks your can do it in folowing :
1: Use the hardware RAID controller to make mirror .
2: <Install Linux . >
( Your will Can see ONE DISK , Create a partion in it ( < 800MB ),And install a linux in it )
3: Install LVM and reiserfs patch and software.
4: <MOVE system to LVM>
Create the other partition with LVM ,mkreiserfs ,copy all system to it .

Hi everyone,
I'm just starting out learning about lvm and I have a couple questions.
First, a description of the machine:
Compaq DL380 933 MHz PIII (rack-mount) w/ 640 MB RAM and (2) 18 GB SCSI disks. The machine has Compaq's built-in hardware RAID controller. My plan is to mirror the two disks using RAID.
I'd like to use LVM (and likely ReiserFS) on this box, but I'm not sure how to get it installed on a bare system. I'll likely be using Debian on this system.
Can anyone suggest a basic outline of the process? I'm certain there's a lot more reading to do, but I'm not sure where to start. (I have looked over the LVM How-to and the FAQ.)
-Tim
