Early in the boot process -- so early as to not be found in /var/log/dmesg immediately following bootup -- the following message flies by on two rawhide systems (i386 and x86_64). The x86_64 is completely up to date; the i386 system is about 4 days behind. The error message is: Enabling swap partitions: swapon: /dev/dm-1: Device or resource busy The i386 system has a single IDE drive arranged thusly: [root@gadwall ~]# fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 15.3 GB, 15303075840 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1860 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/hda2 14 1860 14836027+ 8e Linux LVM Disk /dev/dm-0: 14.7 GB, 14730395648 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1790 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk /dev/dm-0 doesn't contain a valid partition table Disk /dev/dm-1: 402 MB, 402653184 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 48 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk /dev/dm-1 doesn't contain a valid partition table ========================================================== The x86_64 machine has a single SATA drive arranged thusly: [root@osprey ~]# fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/sda2 14 19457 156183930 8e Linux LVM Disk /dev/dm-0: 157.8 GB, 157806493696 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19185 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk /dev/dm-0 doesn't contain a valid partition table Disk /dev/dm-1: 2080 MB, 2080374784 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 252 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk /dev/dm-1 doesn't contain a valid partition table ========================================================== On both systems, swap is eventually enabled properly, but what's up with the error message? And what are these invalid partition table messages in the fdisk output? /dev/dm-1 apparently corresponds to /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01, which is partitioned for swap on both systems. I've googled and searched bugzilla to no avail. (I'm thinking of changing my middle name to ZarroBoogs.) Does anyone else see the swapon error message?
