I am running a similar configuration:
Kernel 2.4.18-rc4
+ LVM 1.0.3
+ linux-2.4.18-VFS-lock.patch
+ sched-O1-2.4.18-pre8-K3.patch
I use ext3, and the LVM 1.0.3-tools + LVM-1.0.3-pmove-patch
Snapshots work.
I upgrade to 2.4.19-pre6, must merge the VFS-lock.patch by hand
and drop the sched-O1-* patch; and use the LVM 1.1rc1-Tools:
Snapshots get generated, but first some (depending on the
order of generation!), later all of them are unreadable (even
a simple cat fails complaining about that), so mount fails.
I decide this might be due to a bad merge on my side or a
kernel problem, so I downgrade to:
Kernel 2.4.18-rc4
+ LVM 1.1rc1
+ linux-2.4.18-VFS-lock.patch
+ sched-O1-2.4.18-pre8-K3.patch
LVM 1.1rc1-Tools.
Snapshots still unreadable.
I downgrade the Kernel to LVM 1.0.3:
Kernel 2.4.18-rc4
+ LVM 1.0.3
+ linux-2.4.18-VFS-lock.patch
+ sched-O1-2.4.18-pre8-K3.patch
but still with LVM 1.1rc1-Tool
Snapshots still show the same problems as before.
Downgrading to LVM 1.0.3-tools on the running system:
everything works again.
