ldmtool Dynamic Disks create error: Stacking NODE_DEL [verify_udev]

I have SSD and HDD and dual booted Windows 10 and Arch on SSD. Before this, I had Windows 10 + Linux Mint on HDD. Formatted previous Windows, installed new Windows on SSD and then Arch. Now, Arch doesn't recognize Hard disk partitions.

sudo fdisk -l

returns

My partitions are in /dev/sda5. I used ldmtool for mounting my partitions.

sudo ldmtool scan /dev/sda5

returned

[
  "0c9f43d0-ddc1-11eb-aa0a-00e18c420e40"
]

sudo ldmtool show diskgroup 0c9f43d0-ddc1-11eb-aa0a-00e18c420e40

shows

{
  "name" : "DESKTOP-0S6HGK5-Dg0",
  "guid" : "0c9f43d0-ddc1-11eb-aa0a-00e18c420e40",
  "volumes" : [
    "Volume2",
    "Volume1"
  ],
  "disks" : [
    "Disk1"
  ]
}

sudo ldmtool show volume 0c9f43d0-ddc1-11eb-aa0a-00e18c420e40 Volume1

returns

{
  "name" : "Volume1",
  "guid" : "0c9f44d2-ddc1-11eb-aa0a-00e18c420e40",
  "type" : "spanned",
  "size" : 1048543232,
  "chunk-size" : 0,
  "hint" : "D:",
  "partitions" : [
    "Disk1-01",
    "Disk1-03"
  ]
}

and

sudo ldmtool show volume 0c9f43d0-ddc1-11eb-aa0a-00e18c420e40 Volume2

returns

{
  "name" : "Volume2",
  "guid" : "39c06e8e-dd5a-48cd-aecd-bf3ea5e0bc9d",
  "type" : "simple",
  "size" : 685547520,
  "chunk-size" : 0,
  "hint" : "E:",
  "partitions" : [
    "Disk1-02"
  ]
}

Now, when I try to create volume for any of these partitions (using

sudo ldmtool create all

or

sudo ldmtool create volume

), it gives me the same error

Unable to create volume Volume2 in disk group 0c9f43d0-ddc1-11eb-aa0a-00e18c420e40: ldm_vol_DESKTOP-0S6HGK5-Dg0_Volume2: Stacking NODE_DEL [verify_udev]

How do I fix this?

Re: ldmtool Dynamic Disks create error: Stacking NODE_DEL [verify_udev]

No clue about the error but are you 100% sure you need/want to use Dynamic Disks ?

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky
