I tried to resize polulated snapshots quite often, like several times a day, but i gave up on that because it didnt work. Being production machines they need to be stable. So, why didnt i report the bug well... i didnt feel i had the time to play arround with our production machines, and i have nowhere to test it, so i just stopped doing snapshots. But i did email this mailing list and described the usage and the errors i got. Not a patch no, but i feel it was reported arround the end of october where i ran into it. Possibly someone else did it before me. See these links for more info: http://lists.sistina.com/pipermail/linux-lvm/2002-October/012602.html Okay, maybe i wasnt clear on reporting that problems continued after downgrading, sorry about that. http://lists.sistina.com/pipermail/linux-lvm/2002-October/012631.html  Not trying to sound negative and all it's great that this bug is gone, but i feel that the effects of this bug was seen before. Maybe what is needed is a better way to see what is bugs and what is missconfiguration. JonB
