Dear all,

I would like to add ext2 and lvm2 support to the a SLES11 initrd. When I run
'mkinitrd -f lvm2 ext2'  the command fails as it looks for
ext2/boot/System.map.

When I run mkinitrd without lvm2, trying only to add ext2 this doesn't work
either. No additional feature is added.

Only 'mkinitrd -f lvm2'  is working.

I would like to have to root partition mounted as R/O because I want to
share it with other instances. It is working quite well under SLES 10 but
with SLES 11 everything is now different.

It is now failing because ext3 driver always wants to write the journal.
When I disable the journal (tune2fs -O ^has_journal), the disk is mounted as
ext2 and then the kernel cannot access it.

Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance.

Florian
