I have two partitions which I would like to logically join so I can
use them as a single directory, mounted as /myth. I have a lot
of experience with partitioning hard drives and such under Linux,
but I am fairly new to logical drives and LVM, especially under
Linux.
My setup is a knoppmyth system, which automatically configured
my main drive hda as three partitions, for root, swap, and /myth.
I also have a second hard drive in the system, which has a
Windows installation on it. I used a Linux utility to shrink the
NTFS partition, which resulted in a second partition on that drive,
which I formatted as ext3. To make a long story short, I would
like to logically join hda3 and hdb2 as a single logical partition,
and mount it as /myth so my existing knoppmyth setup can use
it for recordings. I would appreciate it if someone could give
me some tips on how to do this.
