Bonjour,
I have just used the command fidsk -l in order to see what was my partitionning system.
I discovered a lot of /dev/dm-x disks without any "valid partition table"
But, if I mount them (mount /dev/dm-9 /mnt) they are mounted without any problems and these discks are only the partitions allready mounted under another name (this /dev/dm-9 is /home...)
What does this mean?
I am using lvm
Thanks for lights. - -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 44 55 35 61 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte
These are block devices created by the device mapper and are equivalent to the more verbose but easier to interpret /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol??

Bonjour
fdisk works on devices and not partititions. A device is divided into partitions and each partition (after being made into a filesystem) is what gets mounted. So what you report is all good: you shouldn't see partitions on partitions and you should see partitions in the mount table!
I would sign-off in French, but I'd only embarrass myself.
Hope this helps
Nick
