I used an old version from a build I cvs updated from earlier this year: LVM2/tools/CVS/Entries: /lvcreate.c/1.91/Thu Apr 7 12:39:43 2005// and was able to create my lv. my current version is: /lvcreate.c/1.96/Fri Jun 3 19:48:19 2005// debugging to a small degree, it looked like the problem was in LVM2/lib/metadata/lv_manip.c::_setup_alloced_segment and the parameters to alloc_lv_segment, but I'm too busy at the moment to track it further. if I get a chance, I'll try to debug further and submit a fix. -dan On 5, Jul, 2005, Dan B.
