I've never used LVM, but I think that, if you've defined your volumes in terms of devfs, you'll have to re-define them.
Alright, that makes sense. I installed and defined my LVM set during the installation of Debian, after which I used the supplied 2.6.8-2 kernel (which had devfs support) and everything booted up fine. Now that I tried to recompile to 2.6.17.9 (without devfs) and not changing anything else in particular, I got the problem above. I'm gonna keep tinkering with it, however I will probably move back to the old kernel as it is right now... got a tight deadline so the solution will have to wait until I got more time :-) Thanks! -- Kim Christensen
