This looks like the problem. John, you might just want to punt and go grab a later 2.4 kernel source (2.4.19?) instead of hashing with this old one as the later kernels have quite a few fixes in them. Grab the later LVM source (1.0.6?) while you're at it and build fresh. Thanks Patrick for the link! > patrick -- Peter A.
