heh, saw that in the faq or some post already...
I did sort it out different though:
I moved some stuff in the /var/hda directory around and changed the mount point of the logical volume from /var/hda/files to /var/hda. then I copied some stuff back and it worked.
anyway, with everything sorted alright I set out to do some backups, and that worked great, BUT...
during the backup process I heard a lot of clicking noises from my drive (got it last tuesday)... so I ran smartctl (SMART monitoring tool for disks) and after that the Seagate linux cli-tool, during which I received a very nice I/O error and lots of clickies and an unresponsive server... the drive is DOA
I'm going to RMA it tomorrow, luckily I've also ordered a 1TB disk which should come in tomorrow (it was on sale, I couldn't resist for that kind of money), so I'll probably be up and running again soon.
When I get my RMA'd drive/replacement I can do my thingy and extend my VG & LV as planned, and I'll have a nice 1,5TB storage available...

Re: Partitioning scheme for Fedora and Amahi
ouch.
we should fix pba to use the /var/hda/files area, as that is really a lot of storage being used by backups and putting all the data-heavy stuff in one place is The Right Thing to do.
now, if we could only get patches for this, it would speed things up

Re: Partitioning scheme for Fedora and Amahi
yeah I'd already read a lot about that, which is why I opted for the 750GB disk instead of the 1TB disk, the 1 & 1.5 TB disks seem to be affected most with this.
I noticed that there was a pretty old firmware loaded on the drive (SD15, SD19 or SD20 is current) so I wanted to update it but the disk died before I could do that *sniff* Anyway I think that this is just a case of DOA and doesn't have to do anything with the firmware since the drive clicked from the beginning.
The 1TB I ordered is a Samsung drive, I'm curious on how that one is going to be.

Re: Partitioning scheme for Fedora and Amahi
i recently like the 'green" disks from WD (Western Digital), as they run at lo power *and* low temperature.
low temperature makes the long term reliability to go up.
