Re: LVM - dead disk

However, the soft links for the lvm commands are not available, so you create them.

cd /sbin; ln -s lvmiopversion vgscan; vgscan
etc ..

As an alternative, you could use a debian install cd.

I finally got time to try this out (been away for easter).

The following

modprobe dm_mod
apt-get update
apt-get install lvm2
cd /sbin
ln -s lvmiopversion vgscan
vgscan
ln -s lvmoipversion vgchange
vgchange -a y
cd /mnt
mkdir home
mount -t xfs /dev/mapper/vg0-home home

and - woohoo - my home dir in all its glory. All the other partitions are present and mountable too.

Am now scp'ing everything off.

Thanks for your help :)
