<TwinReverb> (**information removed**) has joined #lvm
<TwinReverb> i can't get the slackware 12.2 kernels to boot LVM without an initrd
<TwinReverb> and no matter how i try, i can't get lvm to boot without using an initrd
<TwinReverb> so if i put only reiserfs in the initrd for their generic-smp kernel, it boots (but it's as if the kernel couldn't find anything to boot from then as its last try it tries the initrd, which reiserfs and the initrd type tells the kernel it's an LVM, then it finds the LVM and it takes like 10 seconds for it to adjust)
<TwinReverb> i despise using an initrd. i prefer to build everything into my kernels that they need in order to boot
<TwinReverb> do any of you guys have a list of things that must be [*] and <*> in the kernel in order for it to boot LVM? i searched google a long time but never found it
<TwinReverb> i mean i had device mapper, my ata module, the FS modules, all of that <*>
<TwinReverb> i even once went through and all the {} stuff (i.e. selected by something else) i made those {*} also
