John, Thanks for the information. I think my problem is I do not have the kernel- source rpm installed. Any idea where I can get it from? thanks -----Original Message----- From: John DeFranco [mailto:defranco@cup.hp.com] Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2003 12:14 PM To: linux-lvm@sistina.com; Murray, Bobby Subject: Re: Question when installing LVM Hi, If you are building a newer version of lvm from source for redhat 7.3 (there is one already compiled and provided as a module), you need to be sure you have the kernel-source rpm installed. Since redhat uses /usr/src/linux-2.4 instead of /usr/src/linux as the kernel source base you either need to create the /usr/src/linux link yourself or when you run the LVM configure command use the option --with-kernel_dir=/usr/src/linux-2.4, this is what I do. I have had no problems with lvm on rh7.3. On Thursday 15 May 2003 08:57, Murray, Bobby wrote: > I installed the LVM on Redhat Linux 7.3.
