Hi all, since upgrading to LVM2 i have a big problem. I'm running Debian and Kernel 2.6.7 After reading the whole web and all available man pages i decided to delete my volume group and start from a clean basis. I erased all config files and purged all packages (debian) and reinstalled everything (exept lvm10) (i _do_ have backups of my data :)) Now to the problem: I have 3 IDE disks: /dev/hde, /dev/hdg and /dev/hdh Before the upgrade to lvm2 i just took the whole unpartitioned disks as PV's and made a VG0 out of them with 9 LV's Now i wanted to do the same and did a "pvcreate /dev/hde" The result was "/dev/hde: Couldn't find device" The disk is accessible for the system, because i can work with fdisk or "dd" it to /dev/null without any errors ! I tried all possible (vcfgrestore and tried to restore the uuid and so on) but nothing helped. So I decided to partition the disk with fdisk and created one single partition.(/dev/hde1) Now "pvcreate /dev/hde1" worked fine so i did the same with /dev/hdg and /dev/hdh The problem now is that it worked on /dev/hdh1 but when i try to "pvcreate /dev/hdg1" i again get the error above. In the meantime I'm rather desperated... Any idea would be greatly appreciated !
