Utilities / Re: Does DFSee do everything LVM does?
« on: 2010.05.23, 21:18:59 »
Personally, I never use anything except the MiniLVM for LVM operations (partitioning, setting drive letters, changing Boot Manager etc.). It seems to have fixed the problems that I have seen with IBM's LVM, or the LVMGUI (a disaster from the beginning, IMO). DFSEE does have LVM capabilities that have worked properly when I tried them.
I am not too sure, exactly, what you are trying to say. If you have your hard disk set up the way you want it, you should not need to use LVM, MiniLVM, or DFSEE, to change it again. MiniLVM will be presented, during install, if you choose to change your disk configuration, but you may also see DFSEE (or a sub set of it) if you need to do something like shrink a FAT32, or NTFS, partition to make room for eCS. DFSEE is also used to check your disk configuration. You may need to bypass that if it finds problems.
