    hii friends, as i am new to linux, i removed completely xp from my hard drive and installed fedora8. now i want to install xp as a dual boot. My whole hard drive is under one partition and i dont bother about loosing the data on the drive. Can any one guide me to delete these log.vol groups of fedora?

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    These are your data volumes, the Logical Volume Groups. DO NOT REMOVE THEM. You can use a tool like gparted to resize your system partitions to make room for XP. It will preserve your data, where trying to do this manually will likely result in bricking your system or losing much or all of your data.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
