I just reinstalled with the desktop cd, after the libc6 disaster I had reinstalled with the alt; hence removing my problem. No worries though it's back for debugging.
Luke: As I understand the lvm2 init.d script was removed because a udev rule was added to replace it(/etc/udev/rules.d/85-lvm2.rules), part of removing slow init scripts. I haven't tested it yet but I heard a work around is to just add vgchange -ay to /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh The lv has a uuid, and I can successfully mount it from my fstab using that uuid (after running vgchange -ay): vol_id /dev/mapper/my_volume_group-my_logical_volume --uuid f8d7a23d-695e-4dd5-82d1-56db53f11e0a the LVs were created as per the instructions at http://tldp.org/HOWTO /LVM-HOWTO/initdisks.html the LV and PV details are below: sudo lvdisplay /dev/mapper/my_volume_group-my_logical_volume --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/my_volume_group/my_logical_volume VG Name my_volume_group LV UUID zzW5v2-4Vhl-66M1-6x0E-OCHH-I2S1-Oa6E0D LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 1 LV Size 698.65 GB Current LE 178854 Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors 0 Block device 254:0 the PV details are sudo pvdisplay -v Scanning for physical volume names --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/sdd VG Name my_volume_group PV Size 233.76 GB / not usable 448.00 KB Allocatable yes (but full) PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 59843 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 59843 PV UUID cJi1EG-bbSs-yYOx-6Bpe-iemm-7rzB-2ZREkx --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/sdc VG Name my_volume_group PV Size 233.76 GB / not usable 448.00 KB Allocatable yes (but full) PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 59843 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 59843 PV UUID 91lH0P-qZw4-phSV-Q5KZ-q66G-KqtA-ykT8MD --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/sdb VG Name my_volume_group PV Size 232.89 GB / not usable 3.18 MB Allocatable yes (but full) PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 59618 Free PE 0 Allocated PE 59618 PV UUID vaPrNw-aCMa-F0bi-O6u9-N76l-VPIg-26v9qW Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help, thanks. -- [gutsy|hardy alpha4] `/etc/init.d/lvm2' missing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192794 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
