Hi.
My HDA is behaving oddly, ever since replacing a duff Hard Drive, and I want to scrub it and reload.
I have the OS drive and 8 (yep :)) data drives.

Obviously, I want to retain my data on the other drives, I just want to scrub and reload the OS drive, whilst retaining the "install Code" that the original installation gave me. I've spent a bit on add-ons.

Has a FAQ procedure been produced for this yet ?

I followed the original installation procedure for creating an LVM.
Is this still a good idea, or has this been superseded with a better method ?

Thanks.

Keep your storage hard drives as they are but pull the power plugs. Then format your OS drive and re-partition or LVM-ize the drive during the fresh Fedora 14 install and go ahead with your fresh HDA install code and Amahi setup.

Once you're done, add back all your drives using the wikis about adding storage drives.

After that I figure an email or so to the dev team would re-enable the stuff you've paid for if it doesn't carry over initially.
