Well, the workaround sort of worked -- it went through the initrd -- I |
49 |
had debug in the kernel command line, but it did not stop for nothing! |
50 |
When it went to the real root, however it did not activate any of the |
51 |
lvm volumes I had except for what I specified in the kernel command |
52 |
line, causing things not to work well. Also, I noticed that if insisted |
53 |
on using the predictable network names, even though I have |
54 |
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and |
55 |
/etc/udev/rules.d/80-name-slot.rules which work fine in openrc to give |
56 |
me back my eth* names. So all in all, it was a mess and took me to an |
57 |
emergency shell and that was the end of that. I did eventually activate |
58 |
some volumes by lvchange -aay, but obviously that would not work well. |

Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: |
63 |
How do |
64 |
you spend it? |
