Hi there I Cannot compile LVM2.2.00.08 on a system with the following info. Compilation error output included too. Help would be appreciated - this is my first attempt to run a system with LVM and thought it best to get going with the latest stable kernel and LVM to prevent migration headaches at a later stage. Thanks. Slackware 9.1 / and /boot on ext3 paritions and swap separate would like to use remaining disk space with LVM kernel-headers-2.4.22-i386-1 gcc-3.2.3-i486-2 gcc-g++-3.2.3-i486-1 Successfully built and running Linux 2.6.1 with: # # Multi-device support (RAID and LVM) # CONFIG_MD=y # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD is not set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DM=y CONFIG_DM_IOCTL_V4=y cd /usr/src/build/LVM2.2.00.08 ./configure --enable-readline --with-lvm1=none resulted in compilation failure... see below: ----- <snip> ----- In file included from activate/activate.c:9: activate/activate.h:13:28: libdevmapper.h: No such file or directory activate/activate.c: In function `library_version': activate/activate.c:119: warning: implicit declaration of function `dm_get_library_version' activate/activate.c: In function `driver_version': activate/activate.c:133: warning: implicit declaration of function `dm_task_create' activate/activate.c:133: `DM_DEVICE_VERSION' undeclared (first use in this function) activate/activate.c:133: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once activate/activate.c:133: for each function it appears in.) activate/activate.c:133: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast activate/activate.c:138: warning: implicit declaration of function `dm_task_run' activate/activate.c:141: warning: implicit declaration of function `dm_task_get_driver_version' activate/activate.c:147: warning: implicit declaration of function `dm_task_destroy' activate/activate.c: In function `_lv_info': activate/activate.c:160: storage size of `dminfo' isn't known activate/activate.c:160: warning: unused variable `dminfo' make[1]: *** [activate/activate.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... commands/toolcontext.c: In function `_process_config': commands/toolcontext.c:151: warning: implicit declaration of function `dm_set_dev_dir' make[1]: *** [commands/toolcontext.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/stage/build/LVM2.2.00.08/lib' make: *** [lib] Error 2 ----- </snip> ----- Let me know if more details are required to track my issues down.
