Well, for me its not a false alarm, sort of. Mine fails to start and |
13 |
then works later on or after I restart lvm, sort of iffy here. This is |
14 |
what mine looks like: |
15 |
|
16 |
Setting up the Logical Volume Manager . . . |
17 |
File-based locking initialisation failed |
18 |
*Failed to setup the LVM [!!] |
19 |
* Error: lvm failed to start |

After all that, it's downhill sort of. Me, I get that with or without a |
22 |
init thingy. I'm on Gentoo kernel 3.2.11. I'm using lvm2-2.02.95-r1. |

From what I found, it does this because / is mounted ro. It can't write |
25 |
the locking file. I thought those were in /var but . . . |
26 |
|
27 |
Also, If I restart lvm after it boots, it starts fine and all the lvm |
28 |
stuff shows up. Maybe this one isn't just me. o_O |
