RE: LVM and initrd

[Pierre Lamb <plamb_98@xxxxxxxxx>]

It is in rc.sysinit search for LVM  the appears to be a error in the script it looks for /proc/lvm but proc/lvm doesn't exist untile you run vgchange -a y so I fixed that problem also I removed vgscan since It will over write the exisiting dat is run again which i have heard can case problems.
