Found the problem: EVMS was moving, or acquiring the /dev/sdb1 device, and creating another node under /dev/evms/sdb1.
I'm not sure if i had EVMS installed under Feisty, but either upgrading it to Gusty or having it installed when upgrading to Gusty triggered the problem. Took me almost an hour (rebooting the machine) to find out the problem, and i have quite a good understanding of linux. Others might be left at a total loss. So I would strongly suggest that the EVMS package first check /etc/fstab for the partitions it takes over, before it moves it for somewhere else. And either avoid taking over them in that case, or printing warning messages with the problem. Is there a way to move this bug from linux-source-2.6.22 to evms ? Thanks a lot!!! Sorry for the wrong classification of the bug -- i didn't know then. ** Also affects: evms (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.22 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- can't mount secondary sata drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153027 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
