I have added dm_mod dm_log dm_snapshot dm_mirror to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules file and then did dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.30-2-686-bigmen and it regenerated the initrd.img file but then when I selected this kernel in grub2 it still could not find the /dev/mapper/debian-root device. I was dumped by grub2 into Busybox (initramfs) and when I ran (initramfs) cat /proc/modules sure enough these modules were now in the kernel. However when I did ls /dev/mapper all I see is /dev/mapper/control and I cannot find the /dev/mapper/debian-root directory which exists when I boot into the vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686 kernel. So why is grub2 failing to boot in the 2.6.30-2-686 kernel? Mitchell -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
