Public bug reported:

Hi,

I just upgraded a notebook from feisty to gutsy and ran into problems
which both kept the notebook from booting.

The notebook has a partition /dev/hda4 encrypted with cryptsetup and a lvm 
inside. root and swap are logical volumes. 
Worked with feisty.


Problem 1:

Any initrd generated under gutsy does not boot, because the /scripts
/local-top/cryptroot script calls the

  /sbin/vgchange

command, which does not exist anymore. Needs to call

  /sbin/lvm vgchange

instead. Or better, check which of both exists and call the one found.


Problem 2:

When installing gutsy, the machine was still running under feisty and 2.6.20. 
Thus, all configuration settings (e.g. /conf/conf.d/cryptroot) contain
/dev/hda4 as the source of the encrypted filesystem.

When booting 2.6.22, the hard disk is now /dev/sda instead of /dev/hda .
Is this intended?

However, the cryptrootscript does not find the partition anymore.

regards
