  1. Re: TimeMachine server: OSX client not recognizing change in

    Solved. Changing the volsizelimit value signals only the size of the share which can be used. As I already started a (canceled) backup process before, when the set value was too small, some...

    Hi,

    Re: Boot fails LVM encryption

    I could reenable AHCI mode, I also need this for hotplugging of my external eSata disk. Somehow on first boot after grub install only IDE mode seems to work, maybe something that should be memorized...

    When I talk about UEFI I mean BIOS, I thought that would be the new name for this point and click tool. The thing is, I can rarely enter it, usually the keyboard is not recognized. Doesn't matter if...

    Further googling revealed almost no results for Ubuntu + cryptdevice in /etc/default/grub. It seems that this is only needed for other distros, apparently the Ubuntu grub installer takes a look at...

    OK, I now reinstalled grub to sda. The mount line for /boot in fstab was automagically inserted, I didn't touch that line. Here is the output of boot_info_script:

    Re: Boot fails LVM encryption

    Darko, I was a bit restless and already purged grub, deleted the grub directory in /boot (inside the root LVM) and mounted /dev/sda1 to /boot. Afterwards I reinstalled grub and chose sda1, this time...

    Re: Boot fails LVM encryption

    Yes, I'm working with the running system right now. So you advice me to do these steps?

    Anything else? I guess I don't have to do anything special about LVM and LUKS, as all partitions are already...

    In Boot-Repair, I selected the option for a separate boot partition, but couldn't choose anything else than sda (the line was greyed out). Afterwards, grub-pc confronts me with the options to install...

    I'm too afraid to boot given that boot info script output mentions "Mounting failed", "unknown filesystem type" for my LV partitions, and further on:

    Re: Boot fails LVM encryption

    Stephen describes how to mount the LV's and then install grub to sda. But I'm thinking that in my situation I probably have to specify sda1 given the following output:
