It's highly unlikely you lost data, as the upgrade would not have
changed the on-disk metadata. If all else fails, you could boot off an
LVM-enabled LiveCD and you'll find all your volumes present. But first
we need to find out what's going on (my machine uses baselayout-2 and
openrc & my lvm volumes were unaffected.
What output do you get from
pvscan
vgscan
lvscan
vgchange -a y
and what's in the various logs regarding lvm startup?
Ok,
pvscan says:
No Matching physical volumes found
vgscan says:
Reading all physical volumes....This make take a while
No volume groups found
lvscan says:
No volume groups found
vgchange -a y says:
No volume groups found.
There's not much in the way of logs, seeing as syslog can't start (/var
partition is on LVM too). running dmesg doesn't output anything relevant
to LVM
And in reply to Dirk's email, I've added the line to my /etc/rc.conf,
but it doesn't seem to have made any difference :(
