However, it also seems that original bugreport is because one corrupted volume (like your leftover) stopped LVM scanning altogether (probably some race condition made it either first or last scanned). Attached patch will fix it. Note: error message is legitimate and won't go away with this patch. To fix the basic problem you need to clear the stale signature but it's potentially dangerous operation and with the fix the effects should be reduced to a single error message. > thnx > > > _______________________________________________ > Pkg-grub-devel mailing list > pkg-grub-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-grub-devel
