and how do I stop it from giving a SEG FAULT during boot up?

arch 0.6
kernel 2.6.5-1

You must have added a new device or sth like it.

Logical volume management provides a higher-level view of the disk storage on a computer system than the traditional view of disks and partitions. This gives the system administrator much more flexibility in allocating storage to applications and users.

hmm maybe just do pacman -R lvm2

that fixed it [ie removed it]

had to add
pacman -S lvm
in order to replace lvm2
then
pacman -R lvm
worked
and cleaned up the mess

thanx

hmm.
so pacman -R lvm2 didn't work out of the box?
what did it say?

tell me so you or me can write a bug report

lvm and lvm2 were both not found in the database,

hope someone does confirm if it is a bug or something I did

zeppelin · 2004-04-30 09:32:39

hmm. I have lvm2 installed. [time to un-install it]

u could just do

pacman -Qs lvm
