I did: * untar the kernel 2.4.13 * patched with xfs * created lvm-patch * patched with lvm * changed the line as described above * configured the kernel * built the kernel This wonīt work in another order, e.g. built the lvmpatch with a vanilla-kernel or apply the lvm patch first! I always got errors doing this. Two questions: 1. Why isnīt lvm-1.0.1-rc4 in the current Linux-Kernel? Why do I still need to patch? I think this version is already stable and better than the older one, isnīt it? 2. Should I write a bug-report to the xfs-guys? If yes, can I include your Email, Patrick?
