Svetljo: Again I do not know that this fact is documented anywhere in the How-To. I will attempt to reimplement this version of LVM later using your suggestions. One respondent told me that I might be having trouble building a suitable init.gz as the lvmcreate_initrd script was revised in future versions? I am curious, does anyone plan to modify the documentation to effecuate adding the issues I have hit up in recent days?
