I have a gutsy installation with the /root as volg1-lvroot and swap as
volg1-lvswap on the one partition, sda10.
I also have a 64 bit install on another partition, sda8, with the same
designations (/root as volg1-lvroot and swap as volg1-lvswap).
I tried mounting the 32 bit partition on the 64 bit and just get an
error message:
paul :~$ sudo mount /dev/mapper/sda10 /media/sda10
mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'
same result if I try the reverse:
paul :~$ sudo mount /dev/mapper/sda8 /media/sda8
mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'
What's the correct procedure to mount it? I did a quick read of "man
mount" but see nothing specific about lvm. Also, in the lvm-howto, I
don't see anything about mounting other partitions that have lvm on them.
TIA
