I have added lvm2 to the FAIBASE and DEFAULT package and from what i see on the installation trace from the FAI client ramfs is regenerated when the client is installed. Also i have checked the time on the initramfs file so i am sure it is regenerated at the time of the install.<br>
<br>But i have still not /sbin/vgchange in the /sbin ramdisk...<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/11/14 Stephane Martin <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:thewallace94@gmail.com">thewallace94@gmail.com</a>></span><br>

From what i see lvm2 is in the list of packages defined in /etc/fai/NFSROOT, is it enough or do i need to specify somewhere that lvm2 need to be installed?<div class="Ih2E3d">
