I'm trying to make a bootable backup disk based on <a href=http:// linuxgazette.net/140/kapil.html>this howto</a>.
The backup is on an external usb-sata drive. There is an sdc1 partition that is not used, a small sdc2 for boot, unencrypted, and an sdc3 encrypted. On this there is a volume group, with two lv-s, one for root and one for swap. When booting the original system, I can open the encrypted disk, but I need to restart lvm for the system to find the volume group on it. I can also mount the lv-s. When I try to boot the backup system, it loads the initramfs, and I get this message: /dev/mapper/vg_externalsata_2-root does not exist. Looking at /proc/modules shows that the dm_crypt module is not loaded (although it seems to be included in the initramfs), which I think might be the problem. Any ideas? Did someone use the same howto with success? Tc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
