You also probably want to force the minor number of <VG>/root to something fixed, since the kernel isn't mounting by name at that point. I built an initrd with busybox, LVM, megaraid and bash. Great for diagnosing problems. (Recent LILO has a bug with device-mapper. Either downgrade or upgrade to the latest, or follow the debian bugtracking on it) --Dan _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
