This isn't a complaint but just comment. I gave myself a lot of free space so that I could be slack about removing previous kernels. I have a lot of kernels installed. I should prune. $ ls /boot/vmlinuz-* | wc -l 14 But I still have a lot of space. Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md0 456M 261M 172M 61% /boot That 1G of /boot is going to be a lot of space for you. Of course drives are so large these days that another 512M is absolutely nothing in the grand scheme of things. You are just going to have a lot of space there and will never have a concern over filling up that partition. :-) > The installation went smoothly, and I think I got everything right. > However, when I run "pvdisplay -v", it says: > DEGRADED MODE. Incomplete RAID LVs will be processed. > Scanning for physical volume names And I see the discussion and answer from Reco on this. I had not ever used -v and had never seen that message. I would have wondered if I had. Now I can file the information away as a bug. There are two other bugs that routinely annoy me. One is that in Jessie they added more columns to the output. Fine. But then they print all of the spaces between even when the columns are empty. https://bugs.debian.org/761676 The other is that lvm complains about things it should not complain about. Specifically open file descriptors. I often see this abnoxious message from lvm depending upon the environment and scripts from which I invoke it. File descriptor 3 (/dev/tty) leaked on lvs invocation. Parent PID 12261: /bin/bash https://bugs.debian.org/639773 Both are minor nuisances and do not affect any functionality. Bob
