Receiving error when trying to add new LVM drive on Fedora 8
I'm wanting to make a media server out of a former dual-boot desktop, but after I removed my Windows XP fake raid I attempted to add the drives to my current LV, however I get an error saying it couldn't get exclusive lock and them and suggested they're mounted.
I cleared their MBR in the BIOS so they're effectively a clean slate and nothing should be accessing them since they're not even partitioned.
Does anyone have suggestions on what to do next? Also, is it possible once I initialize them to simply extend my current /home partition to them without destroying the data in it already?
