Thanks @briggs1978 for submitting this issue.
We are doing what we can to suppress unnecessary messages on boot.
It does look like the lvmetad message you got could be related to something we are not implementing properly. @mmstick Have you seen this before?
Same error here. I got it in a clean installation and in another notebook, with 2 week with pop installed.
I guess that last update did it. Here, the error message appear, and the splash screen not. But It boot normally, to the gnome login screen.
@brs17 This is the upstream Debian bug report. Red Hat patched theirs to remove the warning. The error happens because the lvmetad
service isn't running yet, because root is on a LVM device, which hasn't been mounted yet. There does exist a lvm2-lvmetad
systemd service that can be enabled to start after root is mounted, but this error is of course happening because use_lvmetad
is set to 1
in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
by Debian by default, which is putting the service into the initramfs.
Was running the first testing iso just fine. Yesterday (Friday the 13th) did normal suggested updates and all was well until after power down. Now the system won't boot.... same issue as above:
**Failed to connect to lvmetad.**
This is a 2017 Dell XPS 15 9560 with bios 1.7.1 with intel+nvidia graphics and an SSD on nvme0n1p2.
What is the fix?!
The lvmetad message can be ignored. It's supposed to happen.
This should be fixed now with a new lvm2
Same on Lenovo Thinkpad P51, Pop_OS 17.10 install with no problem, everything works perfectly, but when doing a clean install of 18.04, shows the error commented above. after selecting the option "try/install Pop OS" (or something along those line), it get stock on loading stuff ([OK] .....) and the screen start flashing forever, i cant really tell the exact part because flash very fast, will try again and make a video or something.
