Kernel configuration to boot from /dev/VolGroup00/LogGroup0

Hi,
I've been experimenting with building my own kernels from the upstream
Linus tree. I can't get the kernel to boot though as it doesn't like
the Fedora style root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogGroup0 mount syntax. If I
pass it root=/dev/sda2 it complains it doesn't know what type of
filesystem to mount.
fdisk says my system looks like:
dev/sda1 * 1 25 200781 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 26 19457 156087540 8e Linux LVM
What are the kernel config elements I need for Linux LVM? Is this an
out of tree patch set or some magic in initrd needed? I was trying to
avoid either.
