Yes. I have the same problem Rik has. A debug printf just before the ioctl in lv_create_remove gives the right ->lv_snapshot_minor. A debug printk in lvm_do_lv_create just at the beginning has ->lv_snapshot_minor _always_ = 0. This happens with the 0.8final utils, both with and without additional patches. Andrea's lvm-tools-aa-20000119 are ok. Look like a structure mis-match to me, although lv_v2_t is the same for all tools. Christoph -- Always remember that you are unique. Just like everyone else.
