VGs not detected at startup

Hi, I�m running lvm 1.0.8, on kernel 2.4.30, but I have problems with detecting the VGs. Immediately after bootup, vgscan returns: no volume groups found I find very similar same problem that:

I am running lvm10 in debian linux with kernel 2.4.30

The problem are that boot process, (the rcS.d S27lvm) don't detect any vgs but, after of some trys I must create a workarround and startup the script after of

S35mountall.sh
cat S36lvm_ayuda
/sbin/vgscan
/sbin/vgchange -a y
/bin/mount �a

Yesterday the lvm script runs well but I think that the problem can be change the kernel version (I change from 2.4.28 to 2.4.30)..

The problem was, I change the kernel version, after of boot, for accident I write the checkroot.sh with checkfs.sh, a reboot, (many fails) I use a knoppix for start the disk a recover from a very similar system (debian stable too with lvm too).

After of this, lvm startup script never see any vgs but I exec the lvm script too after of S35mountall.sh the script runs well.

I change some information of SCSI modules (for my usb-disk �but this disk don�t run in lvm only have ATA disk /dev/hdb1 and /dev/hdd1� ) for start as modules. But I don�t remember that, because I think that this can bee easy. The kernel version was compiling well. But after the reboot I see the problem. I try exec vgscan �v, (putting in the scripts) but in boot process for any information but nothing

A very fanny night working at 4:00 AM :-)

Hi finally I find the problem.

In one of my night delete checkroot.sh, I resolve using from the other linux but it was some diferent, finally the script don't mount /proc and the system was unable to mount and detect the VG's.

I download the pakage from debian and get the correct version, now all runs ok.

Thank you for nothing, nobody to answer me. :-).
