Hang on, there's an alarm bell that I've not been heeding. Looking in the code: "Incorrect metadata area header checksum" is a fatal error.
If that's is occurring on one of tour PVs then the VG should not activate.that leads me to think it might be another disk/device that is producing the error. Maybe LVM2 has spotted something that looks like an MDA but actually isn't. Can you try this: # lvm vgscan -vvv >log See if you can figure out which actual device lvm is complaining aabout and see if its actually a device that should be in your VG. Looking at the top of the bug report it looks like it might just be the CD-ROM. Then all you do is edit /etc/lvm/lvm.conf to exclude that device (actually I've done this for you in the latest releases of the lvm package): filter = [ "r|/dev/cdrom|" ] patrick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
