Bug Description

Binary package hint: udev

I just did an expert install on LVM with the current tribe-3 amd64/alternate candiate (20070718). Booting works well, but /home is not mounted becuase /dev/disk/by-uuid does not exist.

I'll keep the vmware image around for a bit for further debugging.

I just did a similar installation which behaved the same: I created a VG "Ubuntu" on one PV (/dev/sda1) with three LVs: swap (256 MB), root (4 GB) on / and home (2 GB) on /home.

Just in case it helps, /dev/mapper/ contains:

Confirmed that the missing dmsetup caused this problem.

lvm2 currently suggests dmsetup, Scott agreed that raising this to a dependency makes sense.

  * Bump dmsetup Suggests: to a Depends:, since without it we do not get
    /dev/disks/by-uuid/ and thus cannot mount anything. (LP: #126776)
