HowTo: Convert from LVM to EXT

Asked by kcg-witchdoctor in Fedora Linux, Linux Setup, Disk Partition Tools

Tags: Linux Fedora, Moonshine LVM, Moonshine

I am a php programmer who make simple web applications. I use fedora with apache for my web servers.   I generally perform automatic partitioning when installing fedora. Recently i went make and image of my harddrive using acronis boot disk. However I couldn't see the partitions as i normally do. I did some digging and determined that i am now using LVM for my partition type. I want to change it back to EXT3. Is there a way to do this without loosing my files and work?Start Free Trial
