I manualy edited lilo-installer.postinst and set disc_offered_devfs to /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc disc_offered to /dev/hda Then I rerun lilo-installer and choosen /dev/hda from list.Hmm, this doesn't seem LVM related at all. Do you also get this when root is not on LVM?
Code that set this variables tries to detect disc device with given partition device. I did not get this when root is not on LVM.
After system boot failed with the following messages on console: No volume groups found /scripts/ext3-add-journal.sh: 32: arith: syntax error: "0x" /sbin/init: 417: arith: syntax error: "0x" Then kernel panic...This looks like #246562 which is apparently fixed in initrd-tools (0.1.68). Can you do an installation of unstable rather than testing to see if it's fixed?
I installed unstable and have initrd-tools_0.1.68_all.deb in apt-proxy cache.
