Thanks, there is an undocumented switch "nolvm2" to turn off volume
group scan. Got it all working now. I'm not yet building the final

to integrate a module wich is outside the kernel tree)?
cheers

hmm that is a good question.. I don't use genkernel myself, so I can't
say for sure. Certainly you can use genkernel to create an initrd
(genkernel initrd). In terms of external modules, this is something I've
never done before. Perhaps genkernel will build everything under
/lib/modules? You'd need to test this theory ;) /etc/genkernel.conf
doesn't offer much advice re modules.
man genkernel shows:
--maxkernpackage=<tbz2>
File to output a .tar.bz2'd kernel, initrd,
contents of
/lib/modules/ and the kernel config"
perhaps this will help you?
