LVM devices in /proc/partitions currently show up as lvma, lvmb, etc, depending on their device number. This breaks things like mount by filesystem name. Back when LVM existed as a patch, I believe there was some support in fs/partitions/check.c for showing the proper name for the device (something like /). Are their any plans for something like this to be added or is their a reason it was taken out? BTW, 2.4.0-test11 is the first "perfect" kernel for me. It finally has everything I use working correctly. (well, with a small raid5 patch, anyway).
