The latest version (this evening) reports on the utilities that didn't work, so you can look for what you need. Of course, if you have LVM volumes, but not the utilities, your system won't actually be able to start up those devices. If you don't have LVM volumes, you can safely ignore the warning. Hmmm. Maybe I should suppress that if no LVM PVs are found in the first pass.... G'night! Phil
