Post #299,761 by pwhysall 11/15/08 3:12:58 AM Reply	Thought experiment/Linux LVM challenge OK, so the reason my Jabber server went crapola a few weeks ago was because of the fuckedup nature of the disk setup. (Recent outages were down to power issues) I'd like to rectify this. So, Linuxistas, here's the challenge: un-LVM a Debian/Ubuntu system without reinstalling it. I don't even know whether it can be done, but I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.
