Look for a thread started 6th of september - subject "pv_move_pe() error again".=20 My patch is available at: http://vestinternett.no/~ragnark/download/LVM_ignore_read_errors.patch2 But like I explained in my original post, and others commented in the said thread, the patch is not 100%. There was a suggested change later in the same thread that was smaller than mine (it didn't change the locking), and is much cleaner if it works. I'd try that first, if I were you. --=20 Ragnar Kj=F8rstad Big Storage
