Well I finally compiled my own kernel without any error messages… all the times before when i looke dat dmesg i was getting: device-mapper: error adding target to table device-mapper: dm-linear: Device lookup failedThis installs the patch in /usr/src/kernel-patches/.
After doing some more google searches i found the fix
. It seems to have soemthing to do with evms… Ubuntu patches the kernel to do what? I reall don't know But i ended up doing:
sudo -s -H apt-get install kernel-patch-evms
This installs the patch in /usr/src/kernel-patches/ Before u do any changes to your kernel u should just:
gzip -d 2.6-bd-claim.patch.gz sudo cat /usr/src/kernel-patches/diffs/evms-bd-claim/2.6-bd-claim.patch | patch -p1
Shit.. time to leave again… i'll write more when i reach home.
