booted with SystemRescueCD and SMART status looks ok (http://pastebin.com/wfZ5q5TL) fdisk: Disk /dev/sda: 300.1 GB, 300069052416 bytes, 586072368 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x000c3127 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 63 192779 96358+ 83 Linux /dev/sda2 192780 586067264 292937242+ 5 Extended /dev/sda5 192843 586067264 292937211 83 Linux if i try to unlock /dev/sda5 it works and lvdisplay shows my logical volumes (http://pastebin.com/v9gqjchL) but when i try to mount /dev/ubuntu/root i get "special device /dev/ubuntu/root does not exist" so unsure if that is a limitation of sysrescuecd or a problem with my LVM in which case i needa move to another mailing list?? _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
