Hi,
There is the different in the name convention (sdX in Ubuntu and hdX in CRUX). Is there anything I should be aware before starting migration?
This depends on how you configure your kernel. When using < > ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support you will end up with hdX the new libata drivers will put sdX in your /dev tree, it's recommended to use this <*> Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA (experimental) drivers
Thanks for suggestion. It makes perfect sense. First time I overlooked ATA/PATA/SATA options. I didn't change them, so they were built as modules, and system couldn't intilize root partition. The box is in garage and I'm not living in California, so I don't reboot it too often and next time I marked both option for any case ;)

In any case the filter = line in lvm.conf is the only thing you may need to edit if your PV disks are hdX instead of sdX, but as suggested use libata. LVM will scan any devices allowed in the filter for PV volumes. Regards, Danny Rawlins
