Dear Sir: Silly me, I followed the instructions in the How-To (30 AUG 2001) which notes there is a patch directory on the ftp site which obviously does not exist. Perhaps the maintainer of the How-To can correct this anomaly so I am able to follow correct instructions.

Suart, patches are created automagically(TM) running make in the PATCHES/ subdirectory of the LVM source distro. Please follow the instructions in the contained INSTALL and PATCHES/README files in order to hear the full story. > > Has anyone thought to add the "FAQ" into the "How-To" or create a combined PDF version of the FAQ/How-To or a PDF version of the FAQ? I didn't think about this that way before, because both documents solve different purposes. FAQ is ment to be a source of questions/answers for typical problems *but* HOWTO is a bunch of process descriptions for achiving arbitrary goals with LVM correctly. If I missed your point, please provide some examples HOWTO ;-) integrate FAQs and HOWTO.
