Hi, here is my /dev/map and my /etc/fstab. Is there anything wrong ?

# noatime turns of atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't

# efficiency).  It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail and tail freely.

# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
