Most likely is that the commands necessary to activate the LVM at boot time |
| 12 |
are not being run. Test this theory by running as root: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
vgchange -a y |
| 15 |
and mount the device. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
If it then works, check the usual things, like /etc/init.d/lvm is in your boot |
| 18 |
runlevel |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Also check dmesg for obvious errors. |
