I am trying to create an LVM aware initrd on Debian stable (a.k.a. Woody, 3.0) and running into a problem. The problem is so basic though, that I must be missing something somewhere else. I have built and installed a new kernel, but not yet booted it (because I need the initrd to boot it). When I try to create the initrd with "lvmcreate_initrd <KVER>" it complains: lvmcreate_initrd -- ERROR running depmod When I try to run depmod just as the script does (depmod -a <KVER>) it indeed does error out with a bunch of unresolved symbols. But they are symbols provided by the kernel and hence the command "depmod -F /boot/System.map-<KVER> <KVER>" is successful. How/why does this work for everyone else? If this were a bug (not passing the System.map to depmod) as I outline it above, surely it would have been fixed by now. b. -- My other computer is your Microsoft Windows server. Brian J. Murrell
