<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have had a system crash ... it has two hard
drives ... hdb crashed in a serious way. There were an 80 GB then 120 GB
drive ... the larger of the two has crashed.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am trying to recover anything that is on the 80GB
drive ... hda1 and hda2. hda1 is the boot sector - it shows up fine with
Knoppix. But hda2, which is part of the LVM (grrrr) ... is the one I am
having troubles with.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Fedora Core 3 is what I have installed. I
have downloaded the recover CD for FC3, but I am guessing I am not smart enough
to make it work. Seems like I should be able to mount just the first part
of the LVM and see what it has.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Suggestions? Thoughts?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks in advance.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>p.s. I have tried Knoppix, in the process of
getting Gentoo Live, ... do any of these live CDs come with vgscan, etc.?
All of the online info requires me to use these commands, but no such luck in
finding them on these live cds.</FONT></DIV>
