I was thinking that it was a my compilation mistake but today I updated my fedora rawhide and the latest version of lvm2 (2.02.04) was installed and I had the same problems. Here's the list of actions I did to create the pv, vg and lv and some tries to activate them: ============================================================================== [root@localhost ~]# pvcreate /dev/hda10 Physical volume "/dev/hda10" successfully created [root@localhost ~]# vgcreate vg_test01 /dev/hda10 Volume group "vg_test01" successfully created [root@localhost ~]# lvcreate -L 500m -n lv_test01 vg_test01 Volume group for uuid not found: gqq5eaIEAauBYPjLXWZ51b38BRXjYKbNTQVtf2rw5RkX7KIvU4d3bGfHZGhF6QVk Failed to activate new LV.

Let me know if this is a my mistake or how can help you debugging the problem. Thanks!
