Well, while experimenting last night, I was able to create a volume group 
with and earlier version lvm (I think beta2), so I believe it is a bug in 
beta7.  Oh, and one more thing, last night I created a volume group of 10 
gigs.  I made 2 logical volumes of around 5 gigs apiece formatted with 
reiserfs.  I then reduced the second volume by 500M and extended the first 
one by 500M.  But when I ran resize_reiserfs on the first one, I got and 
error that the first one was too small.  What is going on?  Thanks!
