Hi,
*i am currently using the kernel 2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp and
lvm2-2.02.06-6.0.RHEL4 on RHEL4.4 (32bitCPU) and i have three disks:*
/dev/sdb: 6497.8 GB
/dev/sdc: 6497.8 GB
/dev/sdd: 283 MB
*i want to create a volumegroup with a mirrored lv. but this is only
possible up to 4TB.
if i want to create a mirrored lv with 6TB, i got kernel panic with
following in the /var/log/messages:*
