Hello,
vgchange -a y
works good - the 4 currently allocated volumes are found and than
also can be found in /dev/mapper/ folder.
In initramfs scripts I rallz doid not find anz scripts which would
initiate the lvm. Is this a bug of initramfs from Ubuntu?
The update of the ramfs brings nothing new - the error is still the
same. But one thing is interesting, after I start update-initramfs, there
comes more times the error message:
find: /lib/firmware/2.6.18-xen : No such file or directory
- could this mean something from Your point of view? The same
messages came also at the time I have created the first ramfs.
Do You have any idea what to do now? Is there any other tool for the
creation of the ramfs which could be used? In the previous version I used
yaird, but with Ubuntu 7.04 it reports some strange errors...
Thank You very much for Your help, Diky Vladimire :-)
Archie

I think this should not be a problem.

Try this (in initramfs shell):
vgchange -a y
this should bring up all volume groups
It seems that there is no script to bring up lvm in your initrd. Check the
contents of /script (in initramfs) or /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts if
there is a script "lvm". Maybe regenerating the initrd might help. Try this
(on normally booted system):
update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.18-xen
(At least this should work on debian, I expect ubuntu to be similar)
