Description Roland Stadtmueller 2002-08-26 16:38:33 UTC

Hi,  
/etc/init.d/checkfs tests for [ -x /sbin/vgscan -a -d /proc/lvm ]. When using  
LVM as module, this will fail causing strange errors, as the lvm-mod is not 
loaded yet and did not create an /proc/lvm entry. Executing /sbin/vgscan will 
force the kernel to load lvm-mod.o all by itself, so testing and executing 
/sbin/vgscan should be enough. 
 
Have fun, 
  Roland

Fix is already in CVS.  Just add

-------------------------------cut--------------------------------
	# Load LVM modules if needed
	/sbin/modprobe -a lvm-mod &>/dev/null || :
------------------------------------------------------------------

before that line for now.
