Hi,
>> What's your definition of mounted?
>UTILITY\LOGICAL VOLUME MANAGER\create volume
The vast majority of the universe would call this creating a volume, just
like the menu option implies.
>I have a freshly built drive where an as-installed eCS can see FAT16 and
>HPFS but not FAT32.
Clearly you are doing something odd when you build up the volumes.
>I tried to create volumes as above. They didn't

>DFSee. DFSee now says they have LVM info, but they do not have a drive

Then it would be most efficient to request support from Jan to fix up
whatever you farkled.
>That leads me to believe
>FAT32.IFS is working.
OK.
>That and my attempts to boot eCS after a FAT32 partition leads me to
>believe that LVM does not work unless you boot with IBM Boot Manager.
Your belief is incorrect. You simple need to use a Boot Manager that
follows the rules that LVM requires. Airboot is one of the alternatives.
I was under the impression that Acronis was too, but maybe this is not the
reality.
Note that in case it's not obvious to your, just like there are several
versions of OS/2, there are several versions of Boot Manager. They are
not all equivalent.
>If
>I try to boot eCS, after a FAT32, with Acronis, I get "unable to
>operate" right after basedevs.
Have you asked Acronis if the support booting directly to an LVM aware
volume?
>If I select BM from Acronis and then the
>same eCS, it boots.
Make sense. It implies you booting via an LVM aware version of BM.
