[continued from previous message]
symbolic links for /dev/md -> ../devfs/md and thus does not find the physical volume (if 'scan = [ "/dev" ]' in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf)
If a devfs is mounted on /dev, it crashes (or devfs_mk_dir crashes?) on certain devices.
Quick-Fix: specify exactly in the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf, which device contains the PV.
For me, the entries are:
scan = [ "/dev/md", "/dev" ]
filter = [ "a|/dev/md/1|", "a|/dev/md1|", "r|.*|" ]
with all other "filter =" entries commented out.
Better solutions:
a) find out, what vgchange does that makes the devfs fail
b) do not mount a devfs on top of /dev in the initrd and make
vgchange follow symlinks.
(Can this last part be forwarded to the Bug #262092 ?)
For more infos, contact me. I am looking forward to this thing becoming
the default installer.
