device /dev/sdb1 not found or ignored by filtering

Hello Everybody

I have two raid 1 arrays on a Dell PowerEdge 2950,
1) 2*500 Go
2) 2*750 Go

I need to use LVM, to create a LV on the second raid array, in which i will afterwards incorporate the first raid array. I have the latest debian distro installed, with kernel updates, and LVM2 is installed.

I encounter my first problem when typing pvcreate /dev/sdb1. ( the partition of the second raid array) I get the message :
device /dev/sdb1 not found or ignored by filtering
I checked /etc/lvm/lvm.conf, and I commented out the line about the filter.
After a reboot, no more luck. I tried to circumvent the problem by booting with an ubuntu CD, but i get the same error message. Could anybody tip me about what's wrong and more importantly suggest solutions to me ? :-)

Thanks a lot in advance.
