You need to build a kernel with LVM support built into it to use this.  The
default Redhat kernel does not have this.  The lvm-iop10-patchgen* packages
contain a stripped down version of the LVM source code made just for
patching a stock kernel (from ftp.kernel.org).  If you need a Redhat kernel
that supports LVM, you should talk to Redhat and let them know it is a
requirement of yours.

You should look at the LVM HowTo at http://sistina.com/lvm/Pages/howto.html
