Yes, I changed the filter line: |
| 15 |
filter = [ "a|/dev/hdb]|", "r/.*/" ] |
| 16 |
And, of course, this is the problem! I copied the line in |
| 17 |
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/lvm2.xml, but since I have a physical |
| 18 |
volume only at /dev/hdb5, I deleted the '[a' and forgot about the |
| 19 |
closing ']'! Things are working now. |

Here it goes, although I suppose it's not needed any more: |

Could you elaborate on this? What init script? Something in /etc/init.d? |
| 53 |
Something to be managed by rc-update? |
