Thursday, July 3, 2003 @ 2:48:10 PM Central Standard Time Hi. Thanks for the links. I actually printed both of the doc's you referenced at work this morning, and brought them home with me. It was cool to come home and have you mention the links to them. At least I know I'm headed in the right direction. I plan on reading the doc's for LVM & RAID this evening, and then figure out which one will be best for my situation. I might try to setup LVM & RAID on different boxes, just to play with them. Thanks for the advice. CW> "Austad, Jay" wrote: >> ... You cannot just mount as many partitions to the same mount point >> as you like and gain extra space.
