Bonjour,

I have presently an install of fedora 6 on a disk sdb with partitions:

sdb1 / (ext3)
sdb2 LVM with lv: /usr, /var, /opt, /tmp, /home

I would like to perform a new install on sda with partitions:

sda1 / (ext3)
sda2 LVM with same lv except /home


How can I mount the "old" logical volumes located on sdb when the new
system will be running on sda?

As devices /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 etc. are created at boot time
in the /dev of the running system I will be unable to access the logical
volumes located on sdb....

I don't know how to proceed.

Thanks for any help.
