Hi, list, A while back, I started experimenting with Ubuntu after playing with Fedora. I decided to jump to Ubuntu and needed to move data from the Fedora LVM volume to Ubuntu. Here's what I did (I'll write this up as a step this week): 0. Boot Ubuntu. 1. Install lvm2: $ sudo apt-get install lvm2 2. Load right module(s): $ sudo modprobe dm-mod 3. Scan your system for LVM volumes and identify in the output the volume group name that has your Fedora volume (mine proved to be VolGroup00): $ sudo vgscan 4. Activate the volume: $ sudo vgchange -ay VolGroup00 5. Find the logical volume that has your Fedora root filesystem (mine proved to be LogVol00): $ sudo lvs 6. Create a mount point for that volume: $ sudo mkdir /mnt/fcroot 7. Mount it: $ sudo mount /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /mnt/fcroot -o ro,user 8. Copied my files. Hope this helps someone else. As I said, I'll write this up as a Step later this week. Kurt
