I have a problem doing a restore of an LVM. I have an LVM with one Logical Volume and three disks (physical) mounted on /original. I did a backup of the three disks (dd) and now I need to restore but instead of restoring to the original LVM mount point (/original), I want to restore to a new mount point (/backup).
??? a dd Backup/Restore works on _physical_ devices (HDs, partitions, etc). It does not work on logical stuff like "mountpoints". Just Restore your three disks with dd Then try to rescan your volume group. If your LV can be found, mount it whereever you want. Andreas
