Package: lvm2 Version: 2.02.39-2 Severity: important When setting up lvm on lenny for the first time one runs into this ugly behaviour:
test:~# pvcreate /dev/hdd1 Physical volume "/dev/hdd1" successfully created test:~# vgcreate vg_test /dev/hdd1 Volume group "vg_test" successfully created test:~# lvcreate -n test-lv1 -L 128m /dev/vg_test /proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel? Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver. /proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel? Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver. Incompatible libdevmapper 1.02.27 (2008-06-25)(compat) and kernel driver striped: Required device-mapper target(s) not detected in your kernel Run `lvcreate --help' for more information. Then one either needs to /etc/init.d/lvm start (restart won't do), or manually load dm-mod. The proper solution is probably to call the init script start action in the package's postinst. Please fix this for lenny. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
