Second, if you put Heinz's latest patch in the same directory as the lvm_0.6.tar.gz file, do the following gzip -dc lvm_0_6-patch-15031999a | (cd LVM/0.6; patch -p1) This should successfully patch two files tools/lib/lvm_tab_get_free_blk_dev.c and tools/lib/lvm_get_iop_version.c If you get bad results, I must have mistyped something, so let me know = and I'll correct it.
