Hi, I?m running lvm 1.0.8, on kernel 2.4.30, but I have problems with detecting the VGs. Immediately after bootup, vgscan returns: no volume groups found I find very similar same problem that: https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-lvm/2004-November/msg00028.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-lvm/2004-November/msg00033.html I am running lvm10 in debian linux with kernel 2.4.30 The problem are that boot process, (the rcS.d S27lvm) don't detect any vgs but, after of some trys I must create a workarround and startup the script after of S35mountall.sh cat S36lvm_ayuda /sbin/vgscan /sbin/vgchange -a y /bin/mount ?a Yesterday the lvm script runs well but I think that the problem can be change the kernel version (I change from 2.4.28 to 2.4.30).. The problem was, I change the kernel version, after of boot, for accident I write the checkroot.sh with checkfs.sh, a reboot, (many fails) I use a knoppix for start the disk a recover from a very similar system (debian stable too with lvm too). After of this, lvm startup script never see any vgs but I exec the lvm script too after of S35mountall.sh the script runs well. I change some information of SCSI modules (for my usb-disk ?but this disk don?t run in lvm only have ATA disk /dev/hdb1 and /dev/hdd1? ) for start as modules. But I don?t remember that, because I think that this can bee easy. The kernel version was compiling well. But after the reboot I see the problem. I try exec vgscan ?v, (putting in the scripts) but in boot process for any information but nothing A very fanny night working at 4:00 AM :-) If anypeople need more data don?t dude said me I sent the output of the commands mounts /dev/hda2 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) /dev/hdc1 on /datos type reiserfs (rw) /dev/hda3 on /backup/disco1 type reiserfs (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw) /dev/vgdatos/vlortofotos on /datos_ortofotos type xfs (rw) I any want's can contact with me in messenger at ediaz NOSPAM AT pk25 dot com Any help is very appreciate P.D Sorry for my English, I am from spain _______________________________________________ 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/
