Pierre, I'd like to pass on some very useful advice I received from this list. the LVM patches are made against Linus' kernel (which you can find at kernel.org). RedHat makes modifications to the kernel (to add device drivers and god knows what else) and so the LVM patches may or may not work against the RH-modified kernel, depending on whether RH modified some piece that LVM patches. The simplest thing to do is to just get the latest Linus kernel. I struggled with the RH 2.4.7 kernel until I decided it was not worth the time and went and got the Linus kernel. Make sure to get the LVM rc1 (at least) since the 1.0 release had some problems with changes that Linus made. I'm now happily running RH 7.0 with the 2.4.9 kernel. - e -----Original Message----- From: linux-lvm-admin@sistina.com [mailto:linux-lvm-admin@sistina.com]On Behalf Of Pierre Lamb Sent: Tuesday, September 04, 2001 10:56 AM To: linux-lvm@sistina.com Subject: [linux-lvm] rh kernel patches Is there a correct way to patch RH kernels. I have tried using the "final path" to update 2.4.7 rh kernel but just get errors. Is there a work around for this problem.
