I got the same error message as in the initial post running Feisty (after not having problems for months). After taking out /boot from the LVM region and mounting it as a simple disk partition via /dev/evms/sda1 it worked fine again - this behaviour is according to the EVMS installation manual (see http://evms.sourceforge.net/install/boot.html):
NOTE: There are some limitations on the type of volume that can be used to hold your /boot filesystem, regardless of which boot-loader you're using. This volume must be created from a simple disk segment/partition, or from a raid-1 region on top of simple segments. Using a volume created from LVM regions to hold /boot is not supported at this time. The volume itself can be either an EVMS or a compatibility volume. The volume in the initial post is also hold by a LVM region - which is probably why it doesn't work. -- lilo + lvm2 don't work following upgrade to breezy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/23835 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
