I've got two computers connected to a disk cabinet (JBOD type). Both computers are identically installed, except that they start different services and mount different disks. In case of a problem with one of the computers, it should be possible to failover to the other computer. Since both computers can be unplugged from the disk cabinet at any time, different numbers of disks can be seen at each reboot and therefor I would like to use LVM and only mount logical partitions. For LVM to work, it needs to boot from an initrd partition so it can run vgscan to find the available disks and then find the real root partition. Unfortunaly this doesn't seem to work with RSBAC. It wants to access its /rsbac partition on the root device and that would be the initrd device. Is there a way to make RSBAC delay its usage of /rsbac ? I thought of using disklabels instead, but I want to use reiserfs to avoid lengthy fscks and it has no support for disklables. /Sebastian - To unsubscribe from the rsbac list, send a mail to majordomo@rsbac.org with unsubscribe rsbac as single line in the body.
