I have two backup drives which use LVM partitions and groups. I also |
| 2 |
have LVM partitions and groups on my main system. |

When I try even vgscan on the backup disks, I get weird errors. Read |
| 5 |
errors, can't find the vg groups, can't write ... sort of works for |
| 6 |
reading, but I wasn't interested in exploring a bad mount, and I am |
| 7 |
not about to actually try backing up to it and possibly trash what is |
| 8 |
there, or potentially used to be :-O |

What makes me nervous is that gentoo ~amd64 has twice before botched |
| 11 |
an LVM upgrade and caused some tense times while I got it back in |
| 12 |
shape. When the system won't even boot properly without a proper LVM, |
| 13 |
it can raise my pulse ... I would rather keep this working system |
| 14 |
running even tho it won't let me mount my backup drives. |

My current LVM version is sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.67-r2, merged on 16 June. |
| 17 |
I rebooted on 26 June (2.6.34-gentoo-r1) and backed up last weekend no |
| 18 |
problems. Seems like something else must have changed since them. |
| 19 |
These are the only sys-*/ ones which seem likely ... |

I see that sys-apps/util-linux-2.18 has failed: |

Does anyone have a clue for me? |
