I have been struggling over the past 5 hours to get
LVM installed on my RH AS 2.1 server but it's just no
go. I have the 2.4.9-e.25enterprise kernel installed,
and when I am done un-tarring the files.
I run the ./configure --with-kernel_dir=/boot
command, as I could not find a /usr/src/linux
directory.. (There are no directories under /usr/src)
Apparently, half-way during there was an error saying
=====
linuxver - /boot/Makefile does not exist
*** Unable to determine version of linux to build
patches for ***
*** Consider using the --with-kernel_dir flag
***
=========
Does anyone know where the kernel_dir for RH AS is? I
would think it's in the /boot folder.

[root@test grub]#
If the kernel is located at the boot, how come I can't
seem to configure it right? I need to get the patch
done for my kernel before it works, right now none of
the LVM commands work.
I have read the INSTALL and README file but still have
no clues.
Appreciate any help rendered.
Thanks in Advance.
