I was able to use this hook to get Ubuntu 15.10 installed and running from a thin LVM volume in a VirtualBox VM.
However, the lvm2-monitor service seems wonky if started from the initramfs, strange errors like: <volumegroup>-<lvpool>-tpool: event registration failed: 2561:11 libdevmapper-event-lvm2thin.so dlopen failed: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /device-mapper/libdevmapper-event-lvm2thin.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory even though the library is both in the root fs and the initrd. Leaving dmeventd and its libraries out of the initramfs seems to allow it to function normally. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1539934 Title: Load thin Kernel Modules in initramfs for support on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lvm2/+bug/1539934/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
