I am using debian 4.0 and mysql-server-5.0 package.
My server will not start because it states that there is not enough
space....Can someone assist?

rider:~# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg_house-lv_root
                      493G 468G 0 100% /
tmpfs 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /lib/init/rw
udev 10M 96K 10M 1% /dev
tmpfs 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/md0 274M 25M 235M 10% /boot

I have a 500gb lvm partition...with hardly anything on it.

I am new to lvm ....so i will need assistance..i think the package is
failing because it is not reading lvm properly.

I have removed the mysql package and now i can not re-install it on the
partition...i would appriciate any help offered.

thanks
