Hi Neal... Yes I had similar problems with LVM...
My Solution to all these woes Wether using or raid/lvm: Turn of raid functions from the sata controller (so it's now just an sata controller)
Sorry, I should have mentioned I am not using hardware raid. I am using LVM2 stripping (software raid). The controller is promise. I could connect to the via instead, if it would matter.
I don't know which controller would be better. I understand the via is more directly connected to the cpu, but the promise emulates scsi, which might be better (well, it looks cooler anyway:).
One major problem is, the Suse 9.1 rescue mode is *missing the LVM drivers*. Now that my system is repaired, I just tried to boot in rescue mode and it doesn't work. It doesn't mount the LVM array, because it appears drm-mod is not present. If my diagnosis is correct, this is a serious oversight. I hope Suse will issue an update to fix this. - ------------------------------------------------------- - -- Please AVOID sending me WORD, EXCEL or POWERPOINT attachments.
