Re: Squeeze boots into my LVM over RAID, but wheezy won't.



When I use fdisk to create partitions, I turn off DOS compatibility (c command) and uses sectors(u command) and start my partitions at the default (2048 I beleive) and I don't have any problems.

So I'd have to move those partitions slightly so they'll start at 2?

Or 3?

That I can probably do!

Is there any way to tell how much space is needed?
