[linux-lvm] LVM in stock kernel!?

[Heinz Mauelshagen]

Hi Pascal,

saw your mail today concerned with writes beyond the end of the device,
Have seen this a couple of times before 8*(

It was a kernel problem in the block i/o layer these days not forced
by the LVM but brougt to the surface by the heavy i/o load LVM striped 
LVs pushed to the system.

Do you see the same trouble with LVM 0.7 in older kernel releases?

Regards,
Heinz
