I have tried a number of times and can only conclude that I'm missing some step(s). I have downloaded and installed the following RPMs from ftp://ftp.sistina.com/pub/LVM/binaries/redhat/0.9.1_beta in the order: 1) lvm-base-1.1-1.i386.rpm rebooted 2a) lvm-iop10-0.9.1_beta7-1.i386.rpm 2b) lvm-iop10-lib-0.9.1_beta7-1.i386.rpm 3) lvm-iop10-man-0.9.1_beta7-1.i386.rpm 4) lvm-iop10-patchgen-0.9.1_beta7-1.i386.rpm rebooted Per the instructions in the LVM HOWTO section 7.4 I edited the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit to add the following lines: /sbin/vgscan /sbin/vgchange -ay and the file /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt with the following line /sbin/vgchange -an I boot my system using PowerQuest BootMagic and enter my Redhat Partition. As Linux is booting and the vgscan is executed I see the following error message: vgscan lvmiopversion -- LVM driver/module not loaded? vgscan: /lib/lvm-iop not found. Is lvm-iop installed? I get the same message if I try to run vgscan after logging in and the same or similar message from any vg command. Also when I run lsmod, I do not see LVM listed and it is not under /proc. I verified the install of all five rpm(s) and do not understand what I may be doing wrong. I can only conclude that it is not loading and I'm missing something. Please HELP Thanks Tom
