Yes, you have 1 and 2 correct.. However I still have
my volume, and it is drive F: in ECS. Shows up in my
drives folder. I currently have FAT32.IFS remmed out
in my config.sys file so  the LVM Physical Disk view
shows it to be unformatted, but will allow me to
change the drive letter or name if I wish. Currently
it reports as:
Volume Name   Partition Name   Status    File System  
Size(MB)   Type
    FAT32                   [ P 0 ]                   
     Unformatted    34561    Logical

Yes, Please send me a copy of your documentation of
LVM, as I have been frustrated not knowing how to
create a volume out of an existing partition without
destroying it, and not daring to try. :-)
