LVM is on a 61.5Gb IBM disk, and my swapp is on a standard partition, on an other disk. Ok, it happens after I get 'swapp is turned off' message on the console. Thus if it is related to swapp, then it is a software bug somewhere, as my swapp is nothing to do with LVM. If you want, I can try my config without swapp. I mean remove it from fstab, reboot and see. Also, do you have an idea for the boot time problem: buffer is busy message? Thanks, GCS
