OK. I notice this when I build the init thingy with dracut: |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
root@fireball / # dracut -H -f /boot/init-thingy |
| 32 |
E: Dracut module "lvm" cannot be found. |

So, it is not able to find the lvm module and honestly, I didn't know |
| 49 |
there was one. Anyway, I googled and only found one reference on this |
| 50 |
and it has no fix for it. So, if I put /usr on lvm, how is dracut going |
| 51 |
to be able to find /usr? This is my current versions: |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
root@fireball / # emerge -vp dracut lvm2 |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |

I have tried all I know to try. I'm note sure what is broke now. If |
| 69 |
the init thingy is working, then I guess the new kernel is messing up |
| 70 |
lvm. Speaking of, I have to boot with my old kernel for lvm to work. |
| 71 |
It won't work with the kernel I built for the init thingy. I'm thinking |
| 72 |
there is a conflict somewhere. I just don't know where. Based on the |
| 73 |
fact the new kernel breaks whether I use a init thingy or not, I'm |
| 74 |
thinking kernel this time. |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
Ideas? Thoughts? Making sense yet? |
