English Install/Boot/Login

Hi All,

I am using Opensuse11 and i have created an lvm involving two disks /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc.

I have created a lvm volume group of 5 GB with the above 2 disks.

The problem is it is unable to mount at boot time. It is giving the following error messages:-

mount: special device /dev/TST_VOL/VOL1 does not exist
…
…

The following is the entry is /etc/fstab:
…
…
…
/dev/TST_VOL/VOL1 /TST ext3 defaults 1 2

Thanks and Regards,
Vivek

Ran vgchange -ay
It was successful, but have to redo for every reboot.

added line sh boot.lvm in /etc/init.d/boot.local.
Working fine
