My machine at work is an install of MandrakeFreq ISOs from June (I think 0622), and last Friday I upgraded the kernel packages to the latest cooker (at that time) because of the big DoS and local root holes discovered. After I rebooted, I was confronted with a huge problem, my LVM (yes I managed to do an LVM install from those ISOs ;-) ) volumes were not recognized! I can boot, since my root is not on lvm; after playing with the lvm tools for a while, I managed to wipe the config files in /etc, but I think that is not a problem, since vgscan should rebuilt them. I was able to insert the lvm module, and get a /proc dir, but I was not able to read the physical volume ...
I guess I need to install a new set of the lvm tools (I am compiling them statically from the rpm right now); am I right? -- Eugenio Diaz, BSEE/BSCE Linux Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED]
