Hi all, I'm trying to install Arch with LVM. I've read the following page: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installing_with_Software_RAID_or_LVM and tried the following commands:
# lvm pvcreate /dev/sda5 # lvm vgcreate VG /dev/sda5 If I check with "pvscan" and "vgscan" everything seems good. When I try to create a LV with: # lvm lvcreate -L 10G -n test VG I get the following message: /proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel? There is also another error about /dev/mapper/control (don't remember the correct displayed message). I got this error when booting from the arch-0.7.1-base CD. Are there some modules to load for this to work ? Is this a problem with the 0.7.1 install CD ? Last question: Is it possible to have the / filesystem resides on a LV ? Thanks for your help. Regards, Gilles. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
