I remember having set up a LV (LVM version 1.0.4 if I recall correctly), built an ext3 filesystem on it, configured quotas as usual and it worked. Kernel version is 2.4.19-pre7aa2, with no other patches applied. I have just tried to setup ext2 quotas over a LVM version 1.0.3 Logical Volume, and is working as expected. Kernel version here is 2.4.19-pre6aa1, and quota package is version 3.04-1. The procedure to set quotas is exactly as done with filesystems on normal disk partitions. In fact, the greatest problem for me has been a quota format mismatch between "quotacheck", "quotaon" and compiled kernel. Hope it helps. -- Jose Luis Domingo Lopez Linux Registered User #189436 Debian Linux Woody (Linux 2.4.19-pre6aa1)
