Encrypted lvm error messages at boot
Hi all, I just installed Debian buster with encrypted LVM, when starting Debian I see the following: " Volume group "debian-buster-vg" not found Cannot process volume group debian-buster-vg Volume group "debian-buster-vg" not found Cannot process volume group debian-buster-vg" It works but I would like to get rid of those error messages. Any thoughts on how to do that is appriciated? -- John Doe

Can you get into the system environment another way? E.g. boot from a live CD mount up your filesystems and chroot. That file should be provided by libgcc1, which a a Depend of libc6, which is a Depend of lvm2. Check the status of those packages to make sure they are healthy. If not, use aptitude, apt-get, or dpkg to repair them. If so, I'd try a reinstall of those 3 packages, anyway. Once that is straightened out, backup and rebuild your initrd, then try to get the system to boot under its own power again. I'm using an LVM root volume on both a laptop and a desktop, so I know it works, but both of them were upgraded to squeeze rather incrementally. The Lenny -> Squeeze jump for both of the VPSes was a bit more rocky. > http://www.howtoforge.com/upgrade-debian-lenny-to-squeeze-in-a-few-simple-s > teps I think the release notes were much more informative and the actual upgrade procedures documented there are not much longer than the article. The article starts with lenny-volatile enabled, but doesn't end with squeeze- updates enabled, which seems a bit wrong, too. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/\_/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
lvm: error whilst loading shared libraries
Hi Guys, I've just had an attempt at upgrading a machine from lenny to squeeze, however this machine as an lvm root volume. Upon booting I now see the message: "lvm: error whilst loading shared libraries: libgcc_s.so.1: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory" I'm guessing I'm missing some dependancy here, so far I can only boot to the initramfs userspace. Any ideas how I can move forward here? I followed a "guide" at the url below on this machine that isn't vital, however I'm beginnig to wish I'd not bothered following that advice now. http://www.howtoforge.com/upgrade-debian-lenny-to-squeeze-in-a-few-simple-steps -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

LVM error
Hello, I have installed Debian Sarge on a system with 2 sata drives and LVM. For every LVM command I run, I have the error: Incorrect metadata area header checksum Does someone know the meaning of this error and how to fix it?

It's a bug: #293508: initrd-tools refuses to make an initrd when lvm support is compiled in the kernel When raid and lvm are compiled as loadable kernel modules, this does not happen. Indeed it doesn't. Running the command mkinitrd from the command line doesn't solve it either. My make-kpkg command is: make-kpkg --initrd --config=menuconfig --append-to-version -16-i386-smp-$(hostname) --revision $(date +'%Y.%m.%d.%H.%M') kernel_image As Andreas suggested, if raid and lvm is compiled into the kernel and if those are the only reasons you want an initrd (because you've got raid & lvm on your systel), try it without then.

Installing custom kernel-image fails on LVM error - I'm lost :/
Hello, I'm really stuck on this problem. I already spent 1,5 days on it :/ What i'm trying to do: Install a custom kernel-image build with debian kernel-source and make-dpkg. I try to trimm down the kernel to hold only what is absolutely necessary. Also i try to compile directly into the kernel whatever i think of useful (performance). When i set in menuconfig to compile RAID and LVM support directly into the kernel, the 'dpkg -i' process ends with the following error message: dpkg -i ../kernel-image-2.6.8-16-i386-smp-hostname_2005.06.22.00.00_i386.deb Selecting previously deselected package kernel-image-2.6.8-16-i386-smp-hostname.

My make-kpkg command is: make-kpkg --initrd --config=menuconfig --append-to-version -16-i386-smp-$(hostname) --revision $(date +'%Y.%m.%d.%H.%M') kernel_image As this error occured the first time i tried to build the kernel-image with everything set as i thought to be cool, i started building the package step by step, reducing the amount of used components at each step (has been 8 compiles now, which take an average time of 2 hours). I did this until i got all set ok for me, only the raid and lvm still set as LKMs. This package works quite well from what i can tell. BUT as soon i set lvm and raid to be compiled into the kernel, the installation of the kernel-image fails :// I wonder why it seems to fails on the swap volume? From my point of view all seems to be working. System is already running with raid1 and lvm (created on debian setup). I have lvm2 installed. You can find information about my setup below. I also attached the failing kernel .config. If i missed anything relevant, please tell me so. Please, i'm really lost here. Any help is greatly appreciated!
