I'm upgrading to DL V1.2.10 on my firewall PC and it seems to be having trouble keeping an LVM defined VG on the IDE hard drive to 'stick' across reboots. I have defined the 'devil-linux' volume group on the third physical partition of the hard drive (fdisk sees it as part3). I have several logical volumes such as swap, spool, squid, opt, home which were then formatted with mkfs.reiserfs or mkfs.ext3 as I thought would work best (excluding swap which was formatted with mkswap). All operations completed successfully. DL seems to mount the 'devil-linux' volume group at boot time, but any file or directory that I create under /var seems to disappear after a reboot. How can I verify that LVM is working OK, and fix it if it isn't? Is there a step missing in the web-online documentation for volume groups. I did vgscan and a save-config following LVM creations and LV updates. ---John. |
