Any help?

I have googled around and it appears to be something related disk
volume management, like LVM or raid or some other such thing. EVMS
appears to be it. I will try disabling it to see.


I was able to fix the problem by disabling the dm_mod.ko in modules.dep.
Is there any reason why it should have caused the disks to fail to mount?
