Back Hi,
I 'm unable to mount a filesystem created on a logical volume where the underlying physical volume is a loop device. Mount doesn 't seem to recognize the filesystem, and refuses to mount even if I specify the filesystem with -t ext3.
Someone else ran into this problem with Red Hat Linux 9, and a reply on the LVM list seems to indicate that the version shipped with Red Hat is problematic. The post in question is here:
http://lists.sistina.com/pipermail/linux-lvm/2003-May/014072.html
Attached is a script of the session where I create the logical volume and attempt to mount it.
This is a stock RHEL AS 3 install. In case it matters (although I suspect it doesn 't), I 'm using the aacraid driver.
Any advice would be appreciated. I 'm happy to file a bug if it looks like I 'm not doing anything wrong.
Thanks, Jason.
