So it's probably not an journalled FS (which needs a kernel-patch for online snapshots). What does the system log say? (dmesg, /var/log/messages or whereever) > How can I rid myself of this > issue? I am on SuSE Linux 7.2 (2.4.7-64GB-smp) with lvm 0.9.1 beta7. You may want to upgrade your Kernel and LVM-Tools to 1.0.1... No guarantee that the snapshots will be any better, though. -Wolfgang
