[linux-lvm] Root LVM + ReiserFS

["Lionel Cottin" <cottin@free.fr>]

Hi all,

I'm setting a RH 7.1 Linux box with kernel 2.4.4 + LVM 0.9.1beta7 + ReiserFS
3.x.0j and I have some trouble to boot from LVM volume ;(

I think my kernel is Ok, cause i can mount LVM/ReiserFS volume and the
ramdisk made by lvmcreate_initrd with no problems at all.
Besides, when i mount the ramdisk, i can see the correct /dev entries....

But when i try to boot on a LVM root device with a reiserFS filesystem, i
have an error like:
VFS unable to mount device xx:xx

And the system hangs up...

Here is my lilo.conf:

boot=/dev/sda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
default=custom
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-2
        label=linux
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.2-2.img
        read-only
        root=/dev/sda6

image=/boot/custom
        label=custom
        read-only
        root=/dev/sda6

image=/boot/custom
        label=custom2
        append = "ramdisk_size=8192"
        initrd=/boot/initrd-lvm-2.4.4.gz
        read-only
        root=/dev/rootVG/rootVOL

Any ideas???
Your help will be very appreciated ;)

Regards,
Lionel
