Hello, I am running OpenSUSE 10 with an LVM root partition named /dev/sys/ system. I want to change my root partition from the /dev/sys/system volume to /dev/sys/primary. The /dev/sys/primary partition is all setup and the required files exist on it. I have edited grub so the entry looks like the following: title SUSE LINUX 10.0 root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/sys/primary selinux=0 splash=silent showopts initrd /initrd On rebooting I receive a kernel panic saying "could not find record for sys/primary in database". This is strange because the message just beforehand states that the volume group sys has been activated and the correct number of volumes (6) found. I am guessing it is an issue with the initrd file. I have rebuilt the initrd file using the command: mkinitrd -k vmlinuz-2.6.13-15.12-default -i initrd-2.6.13-15.12- default -d /dev/sys/primary The rebuild had no effect, the system will happily boot into /dev/sys/ system if asked to but will not recognize /dev/sys/primary. I'm sure that I'm missing out a step or mkinitrd switch, can anyone help?
