READ THE ERROR MESSAGE PROPERLY. |
30 |
|
31 |
It says "The device-mapper init script is written for baselayout-2. |
32 |
Please do not use it with baselayout-1." |
33 |
|
34 |
What does that mean? It means that you are not using baselayout-2, you |
35 |
are using baselayout-1, and you are also using the device-mapper init |
36 |
script which doesn't work right with baselayout-1. |
37 |
|
38 |
As it turns out, the init-script in this case just exists in this |
39 |
condition, so you could ignore it. To make the message go away, remove |
40 |
device-mapper from your runlevel: |
41 |
|
42 |
sudo rc-update del device-mapper default |
