Hi,

my yum update freezed on the mkinitrd (second time it happens in 5.3):

Running Transaction Updating : kernel-headers [ 1/22] Updating : viewvc [ 2/22] Updating : sos [ 3/22] Installing : kernel-devel [ 4/22] Installing : kernel [ 5/22]

S+ _ /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum update S+ _ /bin/sh /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.78758 2 S+ _ /bin/bash /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --mkinitrd --depmod --install 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 S+ _ /bin/bash --norc /sbin/mkinitrd --allow-missing -f /boot/initrd-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5.img 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 S+ _ /bin/bash --norc /sbin/mkinitrd --allow-missing -f /boot/initrd-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5.img 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 D+ _ lvm.static lvs --ignorelockingfailure --noheadings -o vg_name /dev/md1

I tried to strace the dead process but it did not show anything... I tried to kill it but failed. I interrupted yum but the lvm.static is still there... Any idea what could be happening? And why does it call lvm...? I don't use lvm, just software raid1.

Thx, JD
