It's a really long and embarrassing story so I'll cut to the chase.
Is there anyway to convert a drive that was part of a LVM Group to a
simple partition?
I have two SATA drives that were part of a LVM Group that I'm hoping to
pull the data off of. I have a SATA to USB adapter and can see the
drive but mount doesn't work as it wants me to specify the partition
type. Auto doesn't work.
fdisk -l /dev/sda
reports Linux LVM.
Searched via Google but mostly found boot from CD in rescue mode as a
solution. I'm trying to kludge a system together to do this but it just
seems wrong to have to do this.
Thanks for any help or pointers,
Rod
