1 Howdy,

3 I got this when rebooting after we had a power outage. I have a UPS so
4 I was able to perform a regular shutdown.

34 It seems to me that the / file system needed to be checked. For that
35 reason, it couldn't mount /usr after the check was performed. That's my
36 thinking on this. Anyone think otherwise? Is this a one off event or
37 should I be concerned about this?
38
39 Is there some way to avoid this in the future without disabling file
40 system check for /?
41
42 Another related LVM question. I have some partitions on LVM. If I
43 moved the drives to another system, would the new LVMs be found on the
44 new system or is there some magic involved to find and get them
45 mounted? Example. My /home is on its own LVM partition. If I moved
46 the drive that has that on it, would the new system see it or would I
47 have to do something to make it see it? I suspect and wouldn't want it
48 to mount automatically. I'd just want to be able to see it and mount it
49 if needed. Sort of a question I have always wondered about.

51 Thanks much.

57 P. S. For those who recall my brother having cancer. He is close to
58 the end of his treatments. Lost a LOT of weight but hanging in there.
