I know I'm a bit late to the game on this issue, but the problem I'm having is
only happening on my Gateway/Samsung netbook so it's not been a problem. I'm
finally getting time to work on it and I can't seem to find anything that
specifically addresses my problem. Here's the issue:
dracut-initqueue[200]: Warning: Could not boot.
dracut-initqueue[200]: Warning: /dev/mapper/vg-marius-lv_root does not exist
dracut-initqueue[200]: Warning: /dev/vg_marius/lv_root does not exist
dracut-initqueue[200]: Warning: /dev/vg_marius/lv_swap does not exist
Now, this isn't my first issue with this netbook and booting Fedora. To get
F17 booting (because I had a similar problem initially with GRUB) I ended up
doing this from grub>:
set prefix=(hd0,5)/boot/grub
set root=(hd0,1)
linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda5 ro
initrd /initrd.img
boot
It's definitely been a while since I had to do with F17, so I don't think the
problem is the same, but I tried doing that from grub using 'linux
/vmlinuz-fedup' but that didn't work. When I googled the error this morning,
the only real fix that I could find was to edit rd.dm=0 to rd.dm=1. Another
mentioned building a new initramfs, but neither seems to really apply to my
problem. This is what my UPGRADE grub line looks like:
setparams 'System Upgrade (fedup)'
load_video
set gfxpayload=keep
insmod gzio
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='hd0,msdos5'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos5
--hint-efi=hd0,msdos5 --hint-baremetal=ahci\
0,msdos5 --hint='hd0,msdos5' 829c424e-a791-49ba-884d-8783a8289ca3
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set-root
829c424e-a791-49ba-884d-8783a8289ca3
fi
echo 'Loading System Upgrade (fedup)'
linux /vmlinuz-fedup root=/dev/mapper/vg_marius-lv_root ro
rd.lvm.lv=vg_marius/lv_root rd.md=0 rd.lvm\
.lv=vg_marius/lv_swap SYSFONT=True KEYTABLE=us rd.luks=0 LANG=en_US.UTF-8
rd.dm=0 rhgb quiet upgrade systemd.unit=s\
ystem-upgrade.target plymouth.splash=fedup enforcing=0
echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
initrd /initramfs-fedup.img
Since I had to type it in directly, any misspellings are my fault. Hopefully,
it's completely accurate.
As I said, I can't quite decide the proper answer to fix this, so does anyone
else have and helpful ideas?
