But when the initrd ran a 'lvm vgscan', it didn't find the LVM2 space on /dev/sda2, so it panic'ed when it fell off the end of the initrd because the root= wasn't there. My first guess for blame: gregkh-driver-sysfs-allocate-inode-number-using-ida.patch as that's awfully similar to gregkh-driver-sysfs-fix-i_ino-handling-in-sysfs.patch that broke 'lvm vgscan' for me in the same way on 21-rc7-mm[12]. I'll hopefully get a chance to revert that one and test later today - a quick 'patch -p1 -R --dry-run' shows a number of conflicts that will need hand-fixing at the very least. --==_Exmh_1181146132_3541P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQFGZtwUcC3lWbTT17ARAs2aAKDubpaDwNYfdgB0/ZbD9NlgDLy7agCbBtzU FgWESESoej1xNhAiIx8nvnI= =lG2z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1181146132_3541P-- - 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/
