I write in this list to explain the problem with the meta data and the=20 inconsistence. Thank to Heinz J . Mauelshagen i solve the principal problem. Now i have another problem caused by the same root. When i start the devlopment server (debian woody), it remain in the runl= evel=20 1 e ask me the pass to root access for device-filesystem problem. It said that it had problem with the lvm. To start the sewrver i must to : 1) vgcfgrestore -n volume1 -f /etc/lvmconf/volume1.conf /dev/i2o/hda3 2) vgchange -a y 3) mount -a=20 and only now i can go to runlevel 2 for normal start. So i understand that 1) the "restoring" metadata is a routine operation a= t=20 boostrap instead of a propely restoring 2) for some reason this does not=20 happen more. So my question is: Why ? How i can restabilished this at boot time? I can move to solve this other= =20 problem? Can you help me?
