Naming part, there are 2 ways of finding it. |
| 93 |
1: /dev/<VolumeGroupName>/<LogicalVolumeName> |
| 94 |
2: /dev/mapper/<VolumeGroupName>-<LogicalVolumeName> |
| 95 |
|
| 96 |
You included a "-" in your VG-name, this is replaced with "--" under |
| 97 |
/dev/mapper/ |

| 103 |
to be able to mount it somewhere :) |
