About a bug in lvm2 Reply-To: LVM general discussion and development List-Id: LVM general discussion and development List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , List-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: linux-lvm@redhat.com Cc: zibbe@cisko.org I had many problems with LVM2 on gentoo with the 2.6 kernel as well. My solution was to first install the 2.6 kernel headers (linux26-headers), recompile gcc, glibc, and glib, then install the latest unstable versions of dev mapper and lvm tools (at that time it was device-mapper-1.00.17 and lvm2-2.00.15). After that it worked beautifully. As always YMMV. (I should note that this was on a dual Opteron box, compiled in 64bit) Jord Tanner > Message: 5 > Date: Tue, 21 Sep 2004 17:46:55 +0200 > From: Sebastian Hyrwall > Subject: [linux-lvm] Hello.
