We might take you up on that suggestion, Joe. Since we're using 2.4.22, that implies we should use the patches in: http://people.sistina.com/~thornber/dm/patches/2.4-stable/2.4.22/2.4.22-dm-1/ Because we're using device-mapper 1.00.08, I'm assuming we need only apply patches 9 through 16 to our already-patched kernel, correct? I'll let the list know if this gets rid of the orphans.
