Thread: Migrate 32bit to 64bit with LVM2?


my home server has 2 sata drives, drive 1(750gb) , drive 2 (1tb).
drive 1 has bootable os partition (20gb), swap partition (2gb). rest of disk 1 plus of drive 2 arranged single striped logical volume using lvm2, onto /home installed.
under 9.10 32bit worked fine, webmin reported /home of ~1.6tb

ran upgrade 10.04 32bit 9.10 32bit - went horribly wrong, can't boot, can't see eth0. booting off cd still sees relevant partitions, because not obvious root cause is, , have limited time on weekend, it's easier clean install os partition of 10.04, , restore various config files server applications, rather spend time looking fixes on interwebs, low chance of success.

data has been backed up.

question: given i'm clean installing, may upgrade 64bit. if so, there related 64 bit os using lvm2 volume created 32 bit os? i'm aware i'll have fiddle lvm2 volume anyway, , may not work, i'm checking i'm no worse off 64- rather 32-bit clean build, because 3 hrs pull contents of /home off backup, shoudl have complete rebuild.
