Hi all,
I'm setting a RH 7.1 Linux box with kernel 2.4.4 + LVM 0.9.1beta7 + ReiserFS
3.x.0j and I have some trouble to boot from LVM volume ;(
I think my kernel is Ok, cause i can mount LVM/ReiserFS volume and the
ramdisk made by lvmcreate_initrd with no problems at all.
Besides, when i mount the ramdisk, i can see the correct /dev entries....
But when i try to boot on a LVM root device with a reiserFS filesystem, i
have an error like:
VFS unable to mount device xx:xx
And the system hangs up...
Here is my lilo.conf:
boot=/dev/sda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
default=custom
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-2
label=linux
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.2-2.img
read-only
root=/dev/sda6
image=/boot/custom
label=custom
read-only
root=/dev/sda6
image=/boot/custom
label=custom2
append = "ramdisk_size=8192"
initrd=/boot/initrd-lvm-2.4.4.gz
read-only
root=/dev/rootVG/rootVOL
Any ideas???
Your help will be very appreciated ;)
Regards,
Lionel
