Has anyone worked with either the Hitachi or Seagate Compact flash drives in an IDE to CF interface and set the up with EXT3 formatted partitions for use with LVM? I ASSuME that LVM is not for FAT32 formatted drives.

It uses unpartitioned drives or unformatted partitions. Once the LV is created, you can put any kind of filesystem you like on it. -- Garrick Staples, GNU/Linux HPCC SysAdmin University of Southern California Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
