[gentoo-user] EVMS and the LiveCD 2005.0

[Brett I. Holcomb]

I have a system with a SCSI hardware RAID - the RAID makes ukp device 
/dev/sda.  I want to use EVMS on it but not use an initrd for it.  I 
created partitions for /boot (/dev/sda1) and / (/dev/sda2) which is 
/mnt/gentoo at this point.  However, EVMS can not handle the fact that 
/dev/sda already has two partitions. From what I can see looking at the 
docs and the forums it needs the bd-claim patch applied but that's not 
done on the LiveCD so how do I set up my EVMS without an initrd?  The 
livecd doesn't give any options for that.

I get these errors
device-mapper: dm-linear: Device lookup failed
device-mapper: error adding target to table

Thanks.
