tags 291386 patch thanks Hi all, After poking at this, I believe the attached patch represents the best available heuristic for choosing lvm10 vs. lvm2 for the initrd, given that (AIUI) there is no apparent way to query the type of an individual volume from userspace. Cheers, -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer

+initrd-tools (0.1.77-0.1) unstable; urgency=high

+ * Non-maintainer upload.
+ * High-urgency upload for sarge-targetted RC bugfix
+ * Steve Langasek
+ - Don't be so hasty to use lvm10: only use it if lvmiopversion
+ says we're lvm10-only, *or* there's no dm-mod for the kernel;
+ this avoids breaking lvm2 volumes in 2.4 when lvm10 is installed.
+ Closes: #291386.
