I believe lvm (and lvm2) as well as raided partitions show up as unknown
with Gparted, could this be the issue?

Subject: Partitioning question


	I'm on a machine (my #1) that I just upgraded yesterday from F8 
to F9. I opened both gparted and qtparted, to get a look at what 
partitioning I have now, in hope of finding room for a second swap 
partition.

	Both show /dev/sda1 with 196 MB, labelled /boot -- and /dev/sda2

(all the rest, 74 GB) with an unknown file system! Gparted offers a 
warning about that.

	Last time I saw a partition with an unknown file system on one
of 
my machines, I was told the hard drive must be failing, or about to
fail. 
Is that so now??

	Or have I messed up my upgrade from F8? Or what?

	What should I do??
