I am/was (for the past hour or two) just hunting this possibility down. I have the system currently booting from a tftp server (via an etherboot diskette) so that I can shorten the cycle of "modify initrd with more debugging and re-test". I am just about to put some debugging into the native hard disk booting initrd to see what disk nodes are there and such. The kernel is being booted with "devfs=mount", so they should be there. I should know in a few more minutes what is going on. > Does vgscan fail finding your VG our is it just wrong entries in /etc/fstab > failing your root mount? vgscan fails to find the VG. I am sure this is going to turn out to be missing device nodes, but will have figure out why that is if devfs is being mounted. Will keep ya posted. b. -- Brian J.
