Hello,
Thank you very much for your help.
I have tested and tried many things and am still stuck. I have stored a script in /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-bottom/ that calls the following commands:
I have attached the output.
It seems that the kernel recognises the LVM correctly, but it fails at the interface to the device mapper to switch the LVs to “active”.
I already searched for the problem with the missing /dev/mapper/control and came across the suggestion to explicitly run modprobe dm_mod. But that doesn't change anything either.
Something else must be happening somewhere further down the line, because once the system has booted up ‘normally’, I can run “vgchange -ay” without any problems and it has the desired effect.
Does anyone have any ideas about what might be going wrong here?
Many thanks & best regards,
Meinhard
