The bot seemed good till it got to >>LVM stuff. Vgchange does not find any volume groups. I can't say much because >>lvm is pretty "early stuff" on this box; so it is pretty unusable. LVM doesn't work with 2.6.9-mm1 here either, complaining that it can't find all the pv's. I'm not using any sort of encryption. Here, pvdisplay reports: --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/hda2 VG Name home PV Size 24.52 GB / not usable 0 Allocatable yes (but full) PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 6277 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 6277 PV UUID M8tcls-7Tp7-sAYe-ypH3-if50-00JH-hvvXSL --- Physical volume --- PV Name unknown device VG Name home PV Size 70.47 GB / not usable 0 Allocatable yes (but full) PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 18040 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 18040 PV UUID SmreB9-Q3dp-DBBc-q0N9-v762-o6UB-1VUgYw --- Physical volume --- PV Name unknown device VG Name home PV Size 25.12 GB / not usable 0 Allocatable yes (but full) PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 6431 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 6431 PV UUID sbbFSh-0MP8-jtir-Jcyx-VtcE-TxNh-tfNwNe I can open the device nodes for the 'missing' pv's in a hexeditor and see the uuid magic; if I reboot into 2.6.9-rc4-mm1 they are found without a problem, and everything works. Whether or not I'll have time to try to narrow down the change that causes this depends on things that are out of my control ATM. :-/ -- Joseph Fannin jfannin1@columbus.rr.com - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
