Syntax error in UbuntuDesktop LVM command

[Phil Dobber]

refer page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuDesktopLVM
Section: Load LVM modules on startup
contains a list of commands, all of which fail at the bash prompt:-

echo "dm-mod" >> /etc/modules
...

Above returns error:
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;&'
root@ubuntu:/#

...unable to properly setup LVM using Ubuntu 12.04 64bit install disk

hope someone can help, I will attempt to proceed without the Mario Schmidt recommended configurations

I seem to have found the problem myself.
It was a result of the posting which converted the two greater than symbols to their html equivalents

Please edit the page to greater than symbols so not-so-clever people (like myself) can do properly.

Thanks !!

Phil

Hi Phil, and thanks for your report!

Please note that the page in question is a wiki page which anybody can edit - including you. ;-)

Since you seem to know how it should be changed, it would be great if you could fix it.

Due to the nature of the community help wiki, you can't request changes to it in the form of bug reports.

Thanks Gunnar !
I will certainly try this with any issues I find in future; I have never
tried this before.

For this problem, when I check the page, it looks like someone had fixed
it already..
Happy to close this.

Thanks again,
Regards,
Phil
