Hello folks,

I'm trying to install Gentoo with LVM2. I had to stop the installation at one point and reboot the pc. Later, I booted with LiveCD again and now I'm wondering how I am to get my volumes back...

I did the following (I definitely think that I'm doing something wrong here! I admit that I don't have enough knowledge about lvm yet and that I haven't read the complete LVM HOWTO yet.)

modprobe dm_mod
pvscan <<< Found the volume vg
pvchange -a y <<< Successfully enabled vg
lvscan <<< It found all the volumes, ie, usr, home, opt, var and tmp
lvchange - a y <<< I enabled all the volumes properly.

Now, when I do lvscan again, it tells me that all the volumes are ACTIVE and shows the path as /dev/vg/* and shows them as "inherit".

After all that, there is no /dev/vg

Help?

Thank you!

Yours Faithfully,
Mrugesh Karnik
