Thanks for all the response so far it has certainly helped to narrow things
down... I mis-used some terminologies in describing the setup - the root
systems are ENCAPSULATED...not concatenated... sorry for the confusion.
Attached is the error message I recieve on boot of genvmunix kernel in
single user mode:
_______________________
lsm:vold: Error: enable failed: Error in disk group configuration copies
No valid disk found containing disk group; transactions are
disabled.
lsm:vold: FATAL Error: Rootdg cannot be imported during boot
________________________
How to fix this, or even how do I run ln -s to relink the correct devices
when /usr cannot be mounted?
Thanks again to all that have responded so far,
