Will this work against 2.4.20? -- Christopher Barry Manager of Information Systems InfiniCon Systems http://www.infiniconsys.com office: 610.233.4747 direct: 610.233.4870 cell: 267.879.8321 -----Original Message----- From: Andy Francke [mailto:afrancke@cisco.com] Sent: Monday, March 10, 2003 5:51 PM To: linux-lvm@sistina.com Subject: RE: [linux-lvm] Core questions from a LVM neophyte... > OK, so I RTFM'd and have the LVM2 patch created against the > vanilla kernel.org 2.4.20.

Navigate to whatever directory contains "linux-2.4.19-devmapper-ioctl.patch" on your system (likely /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/device-mapper). Uudecode and unzip the patch attached (inline) - you will then want to patch your devmapper patch file by running: "patch -p0 < linux-2.4.19-devmapper-ioctl-patch.patch" Make a copy of your linux-2.4.19-devmapper-ioctl.patch first so you can do a before and after diff - the net result should be the deletion of several lines following "BH_Inode" and the changing of a few line count numbers above to compensate. Now both devmapper and the XFS patches will apply cleanly. Do the XFS patches first. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
