Try compiling from pristine sources. Who knows what Mandrake has done to their kernel or tools? Also, Mandrake uses Red Hat's goofy "GCC 2.96" compiler by default. Try using "kgcc" to compile your kernel and LVM tools instead. Red Hat's compiler is notorious for causing weird problems. -- Ben Scott <bscott@ntisys.com> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
