Almost my entire system is now on LVM. The largest filesystems have their own Logical Volume: /home, /usr, /opt, and /var. This has, until now, caused problems with migration from 2.4 to 2.6 due to the lack of userland support for LVM2. sys-apps/lvm2-2.00.06 was released into Portage recently. The problem in the past has been my inability to do anything after booting the 2.6 kernel, since those four major filesystems were inaccessible. Now that the support I need is provided, I am unsure as to what procedure I should take. sys-apps/lvm2 depends on sys-libs/device-mapper, which is already patched into the 2.6 kernel.
Question: Would it cause problems to emerge device-mapper at this point before migrating to 2.6? Another question: Will I still require some form of initrd script to scan for and initialize my LVM1 volumes at boot-time? - -- Matthew Vaughn [EMAIL PROTECTED] Writing, Graphic Design and Photography http://www.nethershaw.com - -- GnuPG Key ID 0C02F6B0 available from http://www.keyserver.net Key fingerprint = 06E9 EA0F AF06 0521 21D8 5AC9 2154 0965 0C02 F6B0 Signed and/or encrypted mail is encouraged. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux)
