Description Paul 2009-01-16 03:37:25 UTC

The lvm init script contains "before checkfs fsck" and "for i in `ls /dev/mapper/*|grep vg`; do mount $i; done". This is bad. Any volumes that were improperly shut down will not have a chance to be fsck'd. A better solution might be to get rid of that line, have lvm run before localmount, and let localmount take care of mounting the lvm volumes.

Reproducible: Always

Umm, you're smoking something. The script does NOT do any mounting.
