I start windows, move everything from D:\ to C:\ (if there is a +D:\), then check/defrag C.\. + +2. I restart the laptop with the Mageia install medium and start installation. +Normally (with diskdrake during installation) I'd resize the Windows +partition to 20 Go, then create swap on sda5, a large Data partition +(150Go or more) on sda6 and the root partition of Mageia (10 Go) on +sda7. The rest remains untouched. +(A dynamic extended partition sda2 (or 3 or 4) is created +automatically by diskdrake). + +3. If I feel like install another Linux or another instance of Mageia +I just create sda8 in the free space, etc. + +Now with LVM, what do I do?When installing Mageia I don't create those +partitions but just one large LVM which holds DATA, swap and root +partition of mageia? But I want to use swap and DATA with all other +Linux installations as well, how do I mount them into another LVM? Is +it possible to have another LVM for Mandriva, another one for Fedora, +etc. all inside the extended partition sda4? + +Now, I am totally aware that this thread is not for answering such +questions and I will read up on LVM ASAP. What I want to show with +this common example is: many users will ask these questions because +(AFAIK from my forum experience) most users do not use LVM yet. + +-- +wobo +</PRE> + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="002774.html">[Mageia-dev] time to switch from raw partitions to lvm? +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="002777.html">[Mageia-dev] time to switch from raw partitions to lvm? +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#2775">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#2775">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#2775">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#2775">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">More information about the Mageia-dev +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> -- cgit v1.2.1
