Hi list,

Here is the snippit from my dmesg:

thdb: media error (bad sector): status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }

I wonder if that is something to do with LVM? When CD in CDROM drive, it boots just
fine. I have uncommented the line in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
Just in case, here is my lvm.conf file:

# This is an example configuration file for the LVM2 system.
# It contains the default settings that would be used if there was no
# /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file.
#
# Refer to 'man lvm.conf' for further information including the file layout.
#
# To put this file in a different directory and override /etc/lvm set
# the environment variable LVM_SYSTEM_DIR before running the tools.


# This section allows you to configure which block devices should
# be used by the LVM system.
devices {

    # Where do you want your volume groups to appear ?
    dir = "/dev"

    # An array of directories that contain the device nodes you wish
    # to use with LVM2.
    scan = [ "/dev" ]

    # A filter that tells LVM2 to only use a restricted set of devices.
    # The filter consists of an array of regular expressions.  These
    # expressions can be delimited by a character of your choice, and
    # prefixed with either an 'a' (for accept) or 'r' (for reject).
    # The first expression found to match a device name determines if
    # the device will be accepted or rejected (ignored).  Devices that
    # don't match any patterns are accepted.

    # Be careful if there there are symbolic links or multiple filesystem
    # entries for the same device as each name is checked separately against
    # the list of patterns.  The effect is that if any name matches any 'a'
    # pattern, the device is accepted; otherwise if any name matches any 'r'
    # pattern it is rejected; otherwise it is accepted.
 # An array of directories that contain the device nodes you wish
    # to use with LVM2.
    scan = [ "/dev" ]

    # A filter that tells LVM2 to only use a restricted set of devices.
    # The filter consists of an array of regular expressions.  These
    # expressions can be delimited by a character of your choice, and

    # the list of patterns.  The effect is that if any name matches any 'a'
    # pattern, the device is accepted; otherwise if any name matches any 'r'
    # pattern it is rejected; otherwise it is accepted.

    # Remember to run vgscan after you change this parameter to ensure
    # that the cache file gets regenerated (see below).

    # By default we accept every block device:
    filter = [ "a/.*/" ]

    # Exclude the cdrom drive
      filter = [ "r|/dev/cdrom|" ]

    # When testing I like to work with just loopback devices:
    # filter = [ "a/loop/", "r/.*/" ]

    # Or maybe all loops and ide drives except hdc:
    # filter =[ "a|loop|", "r|/dev/hdc|", "a|/dev/ide|", "r|.*|" ]

    # Use anchors if you want to be really specific
 # The results of the filtering are cached on disk to avoid
    # rescanning dud devices (which can take a very long time).  By
    # default this cache file is hidden in the /etc/lvm directory.
    # It is safe to delete this file: the tools regenerate it.
    cache = "/etc/lvm/.cache"

    # You can turn off writing this cache file by setting this to 0.
    write_cache_state = 1

    # Advanced settings.

    # List of pairs of additional acceptable block device types found
    # in /proc/devices with maximum (non-zero) number of partitions.
    # types = [ "fd", 16 ]
 # If sysfs is mounted (2.6 kernels) restrict device scanning to
    # the block devices it believes are valid.
    # 1 enables; 0 disables.
    sysfs_scan = 1

    # By default, LVM2 will ignore devices used as components of
    # software RAID (md) devices by looking for md superblocks.
    # 1 enables; 0 disables.
    md_component_detection = 1
}

# This section that allows you to configure the nature of the
# information that LVM2 reports.
log {

    # Controls the messages sent to stdout or stderr.
    # There are three levels of verbosity, 3 being the most verbose.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Dmitry.

Seems fine. (And  no filter lines redefine it later.) Does the /dev/cdrom
symlink actually exist?

I would be greatful to find out how I can determine that.
Thanks fot the reply.

Dmitry.

Type in a shell command line:

ls -l /dev/cdrom

If the symlink exists, it looks similar to this:

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 3 Oct  9 21:17 /dev/cdrom -> hdc

yes, it is:

ls -l /dev/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 3 Oct 31 06:39 /dev/cdrom -> hdb

any ideas? I don't remember exactly, but I was playing with
couple of lvm tools, and I have always has some sort of wornings about
CDROM, so it might be likely that I have this problem because of LVM.
Thanks again.

Dmitry.
