Hi, All
For over two years, I have used /md0 as / and /md1 under lvm2 with 7
partitions on this amd64 system. I have migrated from "etch" to
"squeeze" without undue problems. BUT, now I cannot boot either
kernel 2.6.30-1 or 2.6.30-2 with grub2, it fails by not finding or
identifying my swap partition. It is one of the seven partitions
on /md1. I can boot 2.6.26-2 without error. I have looked at list
archives and googled but nothing helped. Since I have had minimal
problems to this point, I am not fluent in mirroring commands. My
reading of mdadm & lvm manpages doesn't seem to address swap
issues. Can someone point me in the right direction???

what is the error you are getting ?
what happens when you type mount -a or swapon -a




TIA, Jack



Hi, Alex

Error: "The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct
ext2 file system..fsck died with exit status 8

# mount -a gives : wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on
dev/mapper/Speeduke-_swap,missing codepage or helper program, or other
error (plus some others that says it's not reading/recognizing /md1 )

# swapon -a gives:
swapon: /dev/mapper/Speeduke-_tmp: read swap header failed: Invalid
argument

#swapon /dev/mapper/Speeduke-_swap (executes with out error)

Note: see http://pastebin.com/m7cc9da3d for a view of what I've
got in this system..

Thanks for your reply...

Jack
