1 Hi group,
2
3 Creating LVM partitions on SSD and SD card using systemrescuecd-1.2.0
4 while following doc, 'Gentoo LVM2 installation'. In the doc it says
5 to edit the 'filter =' statement in lvm.conf in order to scan the
6 correct devices. But just below it says to use #pvcreate with the
7 appropriate devices. But if you use pvcreate to specify the device
8 you're planning to partition what's the point in editing lvm.conf?
9 Edited it anyways.

11 Now have:
12 ...
13 filter= [ "r|/dev/ndb.*|", "a|/dev/sd[ab]|" ] # only changed 'accept' line
14 ...
15
16 /root % vgscan
17 Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
18
19 Well, no, it was more or less instant. There was no further output and
20 the prompt reappeared. Does this mean everything is cool or that
21 vgscan found nothing?
