On ~amd64 I have been running without device-mapper installed for as long as I can remember. For some time grub2 (grub-9999) has been returning a warning/error about failure to find device-mapper:
| Code: | $ sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Generating grub.cfg ...
Found linux image: /boot/kernel-genkernel-x86_64-3.1.0-gentoo-r1
Found initrd image: /boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-3.1.0-gentoo-r1
Found linux image: /boot/kernel-genkernel-x86_64-3.1.0-gentoo
Found initrd image: /boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-3.1.0-gentoo
/dev/mapper/control: open failed: No such device
Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver.
Check that device-mapper is available in the kernel.
No volume groups found

Is there anything I can do to suppress this warning. If not, is there a reason I need to be running device mapper?
Thanks. |
