Has anyone moved a LVM buitl on x86 to a x86_64 . It is built using
LVM2. The root partition is not on the LVM . Its just a seperate
harddisk on which i created a Logical Volume and then mounted on /data
Just plug your disk into the new machine, and run pvscan/vgchange for
the new LVM2 partitions to be detected.
Btw, the on-disk structures for logical volume managers, soft raid, filesystems,
etc. are constant across 32/64 bit machines as well as different architectures
like arm/x86/sparc/etc. Eg. you can take a ext3 disk from x86 and mount it
on an embedded arm device without any issues.
