In testing a more extensive use of systemd (i.e. using it to mount filesystems etc. rather than using rc.sysinit) I've run into a few problems regarding the fact that my LVM is activated in the initrd.
I'm using lvm in my cauldron and Mandriva 2011 installs. I have / on a primary partition, with /usr, /var, /home, /opt, and /tmp on lvm volumes. I previously had /var/log on a primary partition, but that did give me a problem with /var/log getting mounted before /var. Once I moved /var/log back into /var, mounting is ok. I have to kill plymouth for a run level 3 boot, and have run into problems with systemd timing out a mount, when an fsck has to run due to the filesystem mount count, but haven't taken the time to file bug reports on those yet. My cauldron install started out as a Mandriva 2009.1 install, updated via urpmi to 2010.2, then to Mageia 1, then to Cauldron. Any info you think would be useful to figure out why it's working for me, and not on your system? Regards, Dave Hodgins
