Hm, sure, we can load the module. Added in CVS. The problem is not resolved with LVM. Here's the catch in RH 8.0 that I experienced. If during Anaconda setup using Disk Druid, I create a Volume Group. LVM loads fine during bootup. If I setup the volume group AFTER I install the machine, LVM fails as described. This was a fix for RH 8.0- so you'll have to be sure you are up2date. Double check the /etc/rc.sysinit script for the LVM file checks, you may no have put the lvm config files in the same place the script checks for them in. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020830 Description of problem: The rcsysinit script to activate lvm partitions only works if the lvm-mod module is contained in the initrd, or preloaded. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.install RedHat 8.0 2.setup a lvm partition 3.setup lvm parition to be mounted in /etc/fstab 4. reboot Actual Results: /etc/rc.sysinit lvm check is skipped because: if [ -e /proc/lvm -a -x /sbin/vgchange -a -f /etc/lvmtab ]; then doesn't find a /proc/lvm (the module is not loaded). Expected Results: /etc/rc.sysinit check runs lvm command "vgchange -a y" and lvm filesystems are mounted. Additional info: There are several bugs that are in previous versions of RedHat: 50556 55460 57563 There are many proposed solutions, this is also one: # If there are lvm configs, but no module, load the module if [ ! -d /proc/lvm -a -f /etc/lvmtab.d/* ]; then /sbin/insmod fi # continue with /etc/rc.sysinit if [ -e /proc/lvm -a -x /sbin/vgchange -a -f /etc/lvmtab ]; then /sbin/vgscan && /sbin/vgchange -a y fi
