I'm creating a new box and decided to fully LVM it. I have the basic
build done. with an initial LV set of root tmp opt usr and var. This
all works fine. I can create a 6th LV no problem but when I try to
create a 7th I get the 

lvcreate -- ERROR "Operation not permitted" opening logical volume "/dev/rootvg/testing"

error message.

The attached strace shows that the node is created in /dev/rootvg/
but then when it is opened again to be populated with data, the open
fails. The debug trace also attached shows the same thing, it creates
the node but then dies.

At this point the LV 'exists' but I cannot format it, as there is no
data about its size. I cannot delete it using lvremove which says it
does not exist, and I cannot lvcreate again as it says it *does* exist!

If I reboot then I can lvremove it fine though that is all I can do.
I can delete and re-create LVs from 1 - 6 with no problems, but once
I try to do the 7th one (or higher) they all fail.

I'm running debian woody pre 3.0 with a 2.4.18 kernel, the only
difference from a stock one being ext2 is compiled in, not a module.
Kernel module is 1.0.1-rc4(ish_)03/10/2001) and
the lvcreate tool is 1.1-rc1

Any suggestions?

the trace/debug attachments follow.

Regards
Andy
