You might get this if /dev/hda6 and /dev/hdb are symlinks (for example,
if you are using devfs).
Do an ls -l on those and see if they actually point to something like
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc.
If they are symlinks, calling vgcreate with the full, real path to those
volumes would work. If that's not it, I'm stumped.
