http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=508109 Summary: Can't boot from LVM partition (Milestone 2) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 1 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: piotrek.juzwiak@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1b4) Gecko/20090426 SUSE/3.5b4-7.1 Firefox/3.5b4 Can't boot to a LVM root partition. System has been set on the same volume group as openSUSE 11.1 which boots fine. The boot partition has been installed on a separate /boot partition with ext2 filesystem. GRUB has been installed on MBR. While booting i get such informations: "mkdir: cannot create dir '/dev/mapper': File exists mknod: '/dev/mapper/control': File exists creating device nodes with udev udevd-event[362]:device node '/dev/mapper/control' already exists, link to '/dev/device-mapper' will not overwrite it After that system waits for the root partition named /dev/SYSTEM/ROOT_FACTORY After waiting for some time it wants to fall back to the same device which is unsuccesfull. After waiting time i get to the busy box? openSUSE 11.1 is installed on the same volume group (/dev/SYSTEM/) and boots fine. P.S. I tried to create "fresh" volume group to install on but it still doesn't work Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Set root partition to a LVM based partition 2.Try to boot 3. Actual Results: System is waiting for the logical volume to become active which never happens Expected Results: System should boot fine :)?? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
