If you want to use LVM2 in Knoppix you have to load and install the kernel module and some programs. To activate it just type as root

# modprobe dm-mod
# apt-get update
# apt-get install lvm-common lvm2

Remember that the tools are in /lib/lvm-200 but if you don't want to type the complete path, you may link them into /usr/bin.

# lndir /lib/lvm-200/ /usr/sbin/


To use existing volume groups you have to activate them.

# vgscan
# vgchange -a y
