[snip] The stock linux kernel comes with an old version of lvm. Please grab the latest version and make sure to patch your kernel (see PATCHES/README in the lvm distribution). You should also upgrade your userspace tools (lvcreate, vgextend and the like). On a further note, check which compiler you are using. gcc-2.96 should be used without optimization (-O0) and make sure you do not use gcc-3.0.x (it produces broken code on some occasions, this happened to me with the lvm tools). good luck, Nils -- > Nils Juergens | nils@muon.de | icq 7090774 < > If we all work hard, we can turn this company < > around 360 degrees -- gruntbert(LOTD) <
