[linux-lvm] any way to locate vg's on, say, /etc?

currently have a choice:  LVM or devfs.  since devfs essentially
wipes out any /dev/blah dir's created after boot when it is 
remounted using /dev/ w/ vgcreate causes pain.  short of hacking
soft links or archiving the devices w/ cpio every boot, putting
the vol group dir's outside dev seems like the easiest fix.

personal guess would be /etc or /LVM as likely places.

just wondering if "/dev" is hard-coded or configurable
in the kernel headers somewhere...
