Re: problems with initialising LVM



solution found - but original problem still exists.

I partitioned hdb and hdc with a single partition for the entire disk
and then did:
pvcreate /dev/hdb1
pvcreate /dev/hdc1

and then

vgcreate VG /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1

mythtv has started to fill up the new space.
