Quite right - a typo on my part :)

OK, I upgraded to the latest mkinitrd and re-ran lvmcreate_initrd, but it
complained that it couldn't find lvm-mod.o (or mod-lvm.o - I don't remember
which way round).

So I downloaded the latest version of lvm (1.0.1) from the link you gave me
and upgraded. This time lvmcreate_initrd worked, but when I reboot I get
another error:

****

RAMDISK: Complressed image found at block 0
Uncompressing...............<3>invalid compressed format (err=2)done.

****

And then it all fails because Root fs is not mounted...

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Ben
