EVMS fails to detect EVMS volumes at boot, evms_rediscover must be run by hand. Created/modified EVMS volumes are not saved properly or detected in the kernel. Later boots with EVMS-enabled kernel (post-install) fail to recognize EVMS volumes created with installation CD. Possible corruption or data loss? As a result, creating new EVMS volumes for direct installation is completely broken. The above problems prevent a new system from being built from scratch with EVMS. Also see forums discussion of similar problems with rc2-4 at: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=40130&highlight= Very annoying when trying to build a server with mirrored disks. ;] Demo
Another issue I found with sys-fs/evms-2.2.2 is that it couldn't find libevms-2.2.2.so. Running ldconfig by hand fixed. Should this be run by the ebuild? Stephen
env-update should be run by emerge after the emerge... that runs ldconfig... Can youu try 2.3.4. I used 2.3.4 from scratch this week for raid0 and raid1.
no response. closing.
Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux". I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers, this is the only reasonable way to do this.
