I found a script: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/lvm
That copies vgchange. But it doesn't belongs to any package: # dpkg -S /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/lvm dpkg: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/lvm not found. Any clues? I moved it away and now lvm2 installed fine: sgautomatizacion:/home/jaime# mv /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/lvm ~/lvm_was-in-usr-share-initramfs-tools-hooks_with-no-owner sgautomatizacion:/home/jaime# apt-get install lvm2 Reading package lists...

Any ideas on which package installed that script? I had already run 'aptitude purge ~c' to remove remaining stuff from removed packages. Jaime Alberto Silva Colorado Gerente SG Automatización Ltda.
