Subject: LVM and Debian

I am trying to install LVM v0.7 on my debian box. I have tried with
Kernel 2.2.13, 2.2.14, and 2.3.40 but nowhere I could find a
configuration option that I can select to enable support for LVM.
Though
in the Install instructions for LVM, it says get a kernel >=2.2.10-ac2
and also in step 8

"Omit this step if you choosed yes for LVM instead of module in "make
config".

   Put an "insmod lvm" into your startup script OR extend
/etc/conf.modules by

      alias block-major-58      lvm 
      alias char-major-109      lvm

   to enable modprobe to load the LVM module (enable kerneld/kmod)."


But when I do "make /config/menuconfig/xconfig", I do not see any
option
for LVM. Am I missing something?

Regards.

Amrit

You _did_ apply the kernel patch? The config new options are part 
of the kernel patch.
Otherwise you may have made a mistake in patching the kernel.


Hope this helps

LVM was only a short time part of the ac patches.
You need the separate kernel patches (http://linux.msede.com/lvm)
