I just tried to build a generic 2.4.16 kernel with lvm-1.0.1 patches on a
Sun Enterprise 250, following the directions in lvm_1.0.1.tar.gz. I got
an error in the SPARC 64/32-bit ioctl conversion code. Does anyone have
any ideas on how to proceed? Is LVM even supported on SPARC64 platforms?
Here's the compile error:
