Changes since v0.8:

Fixes a multifaceted issue where:

  • Turnkey installer defaults do not create a boot partition (boots from the root logical volume)
  • GRUB, as configured, does not include the modules necessary for GPT-labeled disks and thus cannot reconcile the root volume once expanded with GPT-labeled disks
  • Expanding root to >2.19TB would cause boot failure regardless due to MBR limit

This update checks for a dedicated boot partition and if not present, live creates one and adjusts GRUB to accommodate booting a mixed-label root volume of >2.19TB capacity. The requisite fstab entry is added and the initramfs is updated to allow the boot process to execute properly, regardless of the size of the main storage volume.

See project page for usage details.

Simply executing and pressing enter at the prompt will setup the default configuration as outlined in the BRS / Turnkey setup documentation.

To install, simply copy the following into the terminal on your Turnkey installation:
wget https://github.com/ScaleComputing/autolvm/releases/download/v0.8/autolv_installer.bsx && bash autolv_installer.bsx
