I'm not sure but I think I ran across that issue while searching for the other issues you described, missing lock file. There was a fix for what you are having but I can't recall what it was off the top of my head. I think it was putting device-mapper in the boot runlevel but don't break things on my bad memory. :/ I'm also pretty sure I was using google to search the forums too. I have found that google does a MUCH better job with searches than the forums search tool. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
