    After latest bunch of updates, lost my LVM...?

    My system would not boot properly until I skipped trying to mount my LVM.

    Here is what I get after running the LVM tool (system-config-lvm):

    Code:
    Creation of filesystem failed. Command attempted: "/sbin/mkfs -t ext4 /dev/Storage/Storage" - System Error Message: mke2fs 1.42 (29-Nov-2011)
    Could not stat /dev/Storage/Storage --- No such file or directory
    
    The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?
    Here is the portion of my /etc/fstab that pertains to it, and looking through /dev (Storage doesn't exist?!?):

    Code:
    root@Daddy:/home/dpich# cat /etc/fstab | grep Storage
    /dev/Storage/Storage            /media/Stuff            ext4    defaults        1 2
    root@Daddy:/home/dpich# ls -la /dev | grep Storage
    root@Daddy:/home/dpich#
    I had installed 11.10 in November, and the first 3~6 boots of 12.04 went without a hitch.

    Very Odd.....

    Figured it out....

    For some reason, dmraid got installed on the upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04, or some update did something....?

    Code:
    root@Daddy:/dev/mapper# blkid
    /dev/sda1: UUID="ebd5ca42-80ed-4cb5-be12-77ac5a718cdd" TYPE="swap" 
    /dev/sda2: UUID="46392691-dd3b-48b5-a8a9-352daa0b7ca6" TYPE="ext4" 
    /dev/sda3: UUID="d3bd98a1-2d0e-4e8a-9cd7-ba7951f2de6e" TYPE="ext4" 
    /dev/sdb1: UUID="Fb0L4z-01in-NEni-83p4-gAJD-x3jx-YjOCsf" TYPE="LVM2_member" 
    /dev/sdc1: UUID="SLrOfA-pV9A-U1Y7-QfWR-zaCX-mFH5-GDmzR6" TYPE="LVM2_member" 
    /dev/zram0: UUID="492b1cf6-b09c-4b1b-b1be-59bfc873c5c7" TYPE="swap" 
    /dev/mapper/Storage-Storage: UUID="63dbbc95-2d53-4350-b051-a9b797db7068" TYPE="ext4" 
    root@Daddy:/dev/mapper# ls
    control  Storage-Storage
    root@Daddy:/dev/mapper#
    After I did
    Code:
    apt-get remove dmraid
    , and rebooted, LVM came back to life.
