In baselayout 1.12.5-r2, the checkroot script will already remount the root filesystem as rw if necessary, and the /sbin/rc script will do a "start_addon evms" after starting checkroot and modules, if evms appears in RC_VOLUME_ORDER in /etc/conf.d/rc. > to /etc/init.d/checkroot > and removed anything evms related from /etc/init.d/checkfs My checkfs doesn't have anything related to evms to begin with... > mount: /dev/evms/system already mounted or / busy > mount: according to mtab, rootfs is already mounted on / Could it have already been activated by the initrd? > 2.

Probably because you have evms in RC_VOLUME_ORDER in /etc/conf.d/rc, which causes /sbin/rc to do a "start_addon evms" right after checkroot. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
