update system image with lvm2 package and add lvm option into armbian-install script


Recommended Posts

Hi, 

 

Could you please:

  • update the kernel image to include the 'lvm2' package, load the required modules at boot,
  • upgrade armbian-install script to propose an option in the dialog menu to install the root file system on a volume group (VG) and logical volume (LV) that you will create, instead of directly on a primary disk partition?

 

Please, at least if you are interested or not by this feature can you let a comment?

 

Your feedback will help!

 

Sincerely, 

 

Frederic

if you are interested


We are interested for features expansions and improvements. Always :) Especially if that helps more people. But :( as we are small and overloaded ... we can only assist best effort way with hints, reviewing the code, ...

 

Those are possibly related tickets that also waits for attention:

and might be addressed on the way.

 

We had a wish / dream to refactor this script, but its in fact quite a complex problem due to many different boot scenarios, exceptions, links with build framework. On top of general Linux filesystems complexity such as this.
