I solved my problem and the answer was really dumb. The old /dev/sys/system was reiserfs and the new /dev/sys/primary ext3. I had forgotten to add ext3 to the list of kernel modules to include in the initrd image hence whilst the volume group was being activated successfully the partition could not be mounted as root. I added ext3, rebuilt initrd, rebooted and all worked fine. David - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The mkinitrd process must be referencing an old LVM configuration as sys/system was created when I first installed the OS whilst sys/ primary is new. As a workaround I could rename sys/primary to sys/system but I am worried that this may just confuse initrd even more and leave the system completely unbootable. Is anyone able to tell me whether renaming the lvm volumes will have a positive/negative effect in this scenario?
