I'm running Redhat 7.1 kernel vmlinux-2.4.2-2smp. I have tried a number
of times and can only conclude that I'm missing some step(s).
I have downloaded and installed the following RPMs from
ftp://ftp.sistina.com/pub/LVM/binaries/redhat/0.9.1_beta in the order:
1) lvm-base-1.1-1.i386.rpm
rebooted
2a) lvm-iop10-0.9.1_beta7-1.i386.rpm
2b) lvm-iop10-lib-0.9.1_beta7-1.i386.rpm
3) lvm-iop10-man-0.9.1_beta7-1.i386.rpm
4) lvm-iop10-patchgen-0.9.1_beta7-1.i386.rpm
rebooted
Per the instructions in the LVM HOWTO section 7.4
I edited the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit to add the following lines:
/sbin/vgscan
/sbin/vgchange -ay
and the file /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt with the following line
/sbin/vgchange -an
I boot my system using PowerQuest BootMagic and enter my Redhat
Partition.
As Linux is booting and the vgscan is executed I see the following error
message:
vgscan
lvmiopversion -- LVM driver/module not loaded?
vgscan: /lib/lvm-iop not found. Is lvm-iop installed?
I get the same message if I try to run vgscan after logging in and the
same or similar message from any vg command.
Also when I run lsmod, I do not see LVM listed and it is not under
/proc.
I verified the install of all five rpm(s) and do not understand what I
may be doing wrong.
I can only conclude that it is not loading and I'm missing something.
Please HELP
Thanks
Tom
