Hello.

I've been trying to move a physical Debian 6.0 server to a VM running in ProxMox. These are the details of the machine:
  • Debian 6.0
  • /boot partition under a normal ext2 partition
  • root partition is under an LVM2
Since the disk was 1TB, I was able to resize the partition to 500GB, and after that I shrinked the disk size (by using CloneZilla) to the same amount.

I then imported the disk to a ProxMox VM, to a iscsi LVM storage. The problem I'm now facing is that, after starting the machine, and selecting the correct kernel in grub, the VM always drops to a command line stating that it can't find the LVM volume.

When using a LiveCD I'm able to see the LVM group and to mount it.

Any ideas on what might be happening?

Thanks.
