The problem is that /etc/init.d/lvm doesn't find the volume groups at boot, thus /etc/init.d/checkfs.sh (the next script) stops for maintenance because it can't find the volumes. The disks are SATA and all nicely recongized before the init-lvm script starts (by enforcing the loading of their drivers in /etc/modules). After boot, I can do "vgscan" and "vgchange -a y", finding the volumes no problem and can mount them as well. The strangest thing is when I insert a "/sbin/sulogin $CONSOLE" right before /sbin/vgscan $IGNORELOCKINGFAILURES $MKNODES || true /sbin/vgchange -a y $IGNORELOCKINGFAILURES in /etc/init.d/lvm and do vgscan and vgchange manually, it works fine. So what is the difference in between running a command from a script in /etc/rcS.d/ and mannually from command line?
