Here is my grub.conf. I regret that my experience with linux, indeed any form of unix, is somewhat limited. For obvious reasons the lvm boot load is not the default. I have made alterations to rc.sysinit to properly call lvm-mod when the kernel loads and to the shutdown script to run vgchange -an. RedHat's provided rc.sysint has a dependency on /proc/lvm which cannot be satisfied until after lvm- mod loads, a rather curious chicken and egg problem. # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition.
