I don't know whether this really is a bug in initrd-tools or rather a bug in lvm-common. I just ran into trouble because there is an lvm snapshot of the /var partition but since the module dm-snapshot was not automatically loaded at boot time the kernel was not able to mount /var. I helped me in adding following line after line no. 10 in /etc/init.d/lvm: modprobe dm-snapshot >/dev/null 2>&1 An other solution to this problem would be to add dm-snapshot to /etc/modules, but I don't believe that this would be the best solution for this bug. I suggest to reassign this bug to lvm-common and to fix the bug there. Have a nice day Micha -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
