I have 2 500G hard drives partitioned with a few 'normal' partitions for /boot, swap, etc but mostly in a raid 1 array, which is divided into several LVM partitions. For many Fedora releases, I have done fresh installs, preserving the /home LVM partition, and rotating the root partition among several 30-40G LVM partitions for /. This has always worked splendidly until Fedora 21/22. Recently I decided that it was time to move up to Fedora 22, and with failing that, to Fedora 21. I have tried several Fedora 22 and Fedora 21. live install disks (desktop, server) and the server isos. With the live disks, the installer doesn't see my existing LVM partitions, so I can't try to install into them. With the 21 and 22 server isos, the installer sees the LVM partitions and appears to proceed normally, but the final reboot boots into a grub rescue shell, and the only partition visible to this shell is my /boot partition. I also tried the Fedora 22 netinstall iso, which also ultimately resulted in reboot into the grub rescue shell. I have googled several variations of 'grub doesn't recognize LVM partitions' without turning up anything helpful. Have there been changes to the LVM software that might result in an incompatibility between grub and older LVM versions? Best, -jmw-
