Hello,

There is a problem with generating the lvm-1.0.1-rc1 patch for kernel
2.4.10-pre1. 

The patched kernel will not compile because of the
   get_hardsect_size/get_hardblocksize problem that occured in the transition
from 2.4.2 to 2.4.3.

Thinking about it a little, it looks like the patching mechanism got confused
about the kernel version and generated a patch for 2.4.1 . I am not sure about
this and I have not investigated it, but it smells like it.

Please look into it.

florin
