Hi, |

|

Yesterday I faced a problem when trying to switch to baselayout2/openrc on a |
| 4 |
machine with lvm and raid. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
The scenario: Server has software raid with mdadm and lvm2 and is currently |
| 7 |
mostly stable amd64. Root partition is on md1 and most other partitions (also |
| 8 |
/usr, that might matter) on some lvm partitions. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I added baselayout, openrc and sysvinit to package.keywords (later also tried |
| 11 |
with additionally adding lvm2, udev and mdadm, but that didn't change things) |
| 12 |
and followed the migration guide at |
| 13 |
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openrc-migration.xml |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
The system failed on boot. I think that the problem is that for some reason, |
| 17 |
udev isn't starting correctly. It is in the sysinit runlevel. |
| 18 |
The interesting part is probably |
| 19 |
* Populating /dev with ex/bin/sh: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change |
| 20 |
locale (de_DE.utf-8) |
| 21 |
* Setting system clock using the hardware clock [UTC] ... |
| 22 |
Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method. |
| 23 |
Use the --debug option to see the details of our search for an access method. |
| 24 |
* Failed to set the system clock |
| 25 |
[ !! ] |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
I get a lot of more failures, raid and lvm isn't starting with errors. The |
| 28 |
LC_ALL-warnings are polluting everything, but that shouldn't be an issue (?). |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Any hints on what might be wrong? |
