You seem to be right. Sorry about not checking first. I'm pretty sure this setting got changed as I updated at some point (or even when I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04). I remember not knowing which setting to choose and eventually allowed the updated lvm.conf to be chosen. But this happened a while ago. Maybe this got fixed with some other update...
I think you can safely close this bug as it no longer describes the package in it's current version. Sorry about the trouble. ** Description changed: Binary package hint: lvm2 During an Ubuntu update the default filter for lvm changed to filter = [ "a|/dev/sd[bc]|", "r/.*/" ] from (as far as I can remember) filter = [ "a|.*|", "r/.*/" ] (or something to that affect, really accepting every block device as the above comment in the lvm.conf file states) - This is really silly because it only accepts only /dev/sdb* and /dev/sdc* as devices for lvm. Ony of my PVs was /dev/sda1. + This is really silly because it only accepts only /dev/sdb* and /dev/sdc* as devices for lvm. One of my PVs was /dev/sda1. As a result I was getting errors such as (for you googlers out there): Couldn't find device with uuid 'WUt5aA-O3fM-H21h-e0Dc-Fqrx- flP2-obQF07'. I didn't know what all this meant and nearly went as far as trying pvcreate --uuid "WUt5aA-O3fM-H21h-e0Dc-Fqrx-flP2-obQF07" --restorefile /etc/lvm/backup/vg /dev/sda1 This kind of stuff is really difficult to debug for a newbie.
