hi ramsis,

unfortunately no :-( looks all fine. But I dont use Redhat and I have
no idea what "lvmcreate_initrd" exactly does. Seems "-d" activates devfs
which is obsolete now. I also do not use 2.4 kernels any more.
I use a similar setup, but with SuSE 10.1 using an actual 2.6 kernel.

sorry
Dieter.
