Description John Huttley 2005-11-18 12:04:41 UTC
/etc/conf.d/rc defines RC_VOLUME_ORDER. This is then used in /sbin/functions.sh,
in start_volumes().
However rc never calls it. Thus pure evms systems don't boot, as root cannot be
found.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.




start_volumes() must run as soon as possible after /dev is populated. (in /sbin/rc)
If you put start_volumes above bootlog start  (About line 120), you can now boot.
