After several lvm2 operations (pvmove, vgextend, vgsplit, etc) my system suddenly refused to boot. The error I was getting was: "/dev/root no such file or directory". When inspecting /dev/root it looked fine. I did update the initrd before rebooting (just in case). The strange thing is that when I pass "root=/dev/mapper/vg00-root" to lilo, all works fine. That is the same value root is set to in lilo.conf. Setting append="root=/dev/mapper/vg00-root" works, but just defining root=/dev/mapper/vg00-root in lilo.conf does not. Is it be possible that messing with vg00 would have changed the block device for vg00-root?
