I built the patch and applied it with no apparent problem but when I try to build the kernel I get the errors in the log below. has anyone been here before? 1k thx - e make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/ide' make -C md make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/md' make all_targets make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/md' gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-tri graphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpre ferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i586 -c -o lvm.o lvm.c lvm.c:2329:71: macro "min" requires 3 arguments, but only 2 given lvm.c:2343:59: macro "min" requires 3 arguments, but only 2 given lvm.c: In function `__extend_reduce': lvm.c:2329: `min' undeclared (first use in this function) lvm.c:2329: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once lvm.c:2329: for each function it appears in.) lvm.c:2280: warning: `end' might be used uninitialized in this function lvm.c:2339: warning: `end' might be used uninitialized in this function make[3]: *** [lvm.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/md' make[2]: *** [first_rule] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/md' make[1]: *** [_subdir_md] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers' make: *** [_dir_drivers] Error 2 -----Original Message----- From: linux-lvm-admin@sistina.com [mailto:linux-lvm-admin@sistina.com] On Behalf Of gerry@dorfam.ca Sent: Sunday, August 26, 2001 6:21 AM To: linux-lvm@sistina.com Subject: RE: [linux-lvm] Successful Upgrade to 1.0 with RH 7.1 On Sat, 25 Aug 2001, Erick Calder wrote: > > started with a clean Redhat 2.4.3-12 kernel > > I'm running a stock 7.0 version and downloaded the above-named kernel... > patch and compilation went ok but I can't seem to make modules...

I didn't do anything special. I wasn't able to successfully install the newly created patch until I replaced the kernel source with a fresh "clean" rpm. Are you running the 2.4 kernel or are you using 2.2? That makes a big difference as you need to add the raw.io patch to the 2.2 kernel. Also, I don't believe that the shipped RH kernel config enables LVM as a default. I still have the patch for 2.4.3-12. However, I doubt it would work for a 7.0 install since I'm using 7.1.
