Bug#575069: kexec-tools: doesn't boot if root is a lvm volume and swap too
Package: kexec-tools Version: 1:2.0.1-1 Severity: normal Hi, I have a system with lvm partitions. swap and root are lvm partitions. I tried to use kexec: # kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30-1-686 --append=root=/dev/vg/root --initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.30-1-686 # kexec -e Then It hangs at mounting root filesystem, and then it show me a shell. Inside this shell I can see: # ls /dev/vg swap I can activate my logical volumes with vgchange # vgchange -ay vg ... 30 logical volumes in volume group vg now active I tried too with append=/dev/mapper/vg-root # kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30-1-686 --append=root=/dev/mapper/vg-root --initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.30-1-686 # kexec -e And it hangs for me telling it is not able to mount root but doesn't return any shell (like a oops appears in screen) Thank you very much -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=es_ES.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_ES.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages kexec-tools depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.29 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib kexec-tools recommends no packages. kexec-tools suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
