This is by no means blessed by the official LVM folks, but what I've been doing for quite a while is the following (assuming the latest lvm and kernel tarballs are unpacked in the current directory): cp LVM/1.0.1-rc4/kernel/*.c LVM/1.0.1-rc4/kernel/lvm-internal.h \ linux/drivers/md/ cp LVM/1.0.1-rc4/kernel/lvm.h linux/include/linux/ cat linux/drivers/md/Makefile | \ sed 's/^\(lvm-mod-objs.*\)$/\1 lvm-fs.o/' > m && \ mv m linux/drivers/md/Makefile Very simple procedure; replace all the lvm stuff in the kernel w/ the new lvm files, and just add lvm-fs.o to the md Makefile: -lvm-mod-objs := lvm.o lvm-snap.o +lvm-mod-objs := lvm.o lvm-snap.o lvm-fs.o No worries about rejected patches, and so on.
