[linux-lvm] I can't add other disk in lvm system

[Heinz J. Mauelshagen]

Hi Joan,

you seem to have an older LVM version which unfortunatly had that bug.

Please get the recent LVM software from www.sistina.com and follow the
steps in the INSTALL file in order to get it up and running.

Then you should be able to do "vgextend -v vm0 /dev/hdc1" successfully.
