[linux-lvm] RedHat 7.0?

[Erick Calder]

I recently read that applying the LVM patches to the RH kernel doesn't
work... so I downloaded Linus' kernel (2.2.19) and seem unable to patch it
on account of not having a rawid patch available... I've looked in the
directory specified in the HOWTO but there is no patch for 2.2.19... when I
type "make" in the PATCHES directory I get:

You haven't applied the rawio patch, please see the README
make: *** [check_rawio] Error 1

can anyone suggest what I need to do?

1k thx - e r i c k

	I'm using RH Linux 7.0.  I got it compiled into the kernel,
though it was a bit of a chore as I recall.  I had to disable the
software RAID subsystem completely to make it work.

	When the 2.4 kernel came out, I eventually switched to it, and
just compiled a raw kernel, not an RH patched one.  It worked fine, and
I'm still running it.

Have fun (if at all possible),
