I have an ~amd64 installation and while booting the lvm2 vgs are not activated anymore, so booting stops there. After logging in for maintenance (root is not on lvm) I type "vgchange -a y" press Ctrl-D and ehre we go. The string "vgchange" occures in no file located in /etc/init.d/*. Shouldn't that be the case? Concerned are baselayout-1.11.12-r3 and baselayout-1.11.12-r1
(In reply to comment #0) > The string "vgchange" occures in no file located in /etc/init.d/*. Shouldn't that be the case? Uhm, not really. The relevant script is /lib/rcscripts/addons/lvm-start.sh. Do you have it?
re-emerge lvm2 and see if that fixes things
lvm2-start.sh has the vgchange code in it
The file /lib/rcscripts/addons/lvm-start.sh is there it is somehow not called. I also tested baselayout-1.12.0_alpha2-r1 which has the same error, I will show up in the baselayout thread in gentoo-dev :) Konsti
(In reply to comment #4) > The file /lib/rcscripts/addons/lvm-start.sh is there it is somehow not called. Hmm, this is pretty strange as it works like a charm for me. It even works for LVM2 over RAID-1. Now using baselayout 1.11.12-r4 but it has worked with 1.11.11 as well.
you have to make sure you properly did `etc-update` and your /etc/conf.d/rc now defines RC_VOLUME_ORDER
Please reopen. I've got the same problem on ~x86. I ran "etc-update". /etc/conf.d/rc has: RC_VOLUME_ORDER="raid evms lvm dm" That looks all right to me. Until a few days, lvm worked for me. I suppose that /lib/rcscripts/addons/lvm-start.sh is not run.

Again: Please reopen! Does anyone have an idea, why the lvm2 vg's aren't reactivated during boot?
