Fortunately a mount -a followed by emerge -1 lvm2-previous version has be back in business (with the new lvm2 masked). I subsequently found the bug below. allan ================================================================ Bug 409921 - Upgrading to sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.95 causes failure in mounting lvm2 filesystems at boot After upgrading to sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.95 the system failed to mount filesystems belonging to LVM devices during boot phase. The errors are catched at the attached photgraphs. After logging-in, only the file systems not belonging to LVM were mounted. The LVM devices were there, and doing 'mount -a' succeded (all partitions were mounted). After this I was able to downgrade to sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.93-r1, which works without problems. I am using sys-fs/udev-171-r5, the newer verions are masked due to the separate /usr partition on LVM - I haven't yet got enough time to configure initramfs.
