I had a fast day with some other snmp stuff so I didn't have time for
the LVM stuff.  Only concern i I won't use root as LVM and it is stayed
that LVM should be compiled as a module preferably (I think coz the
developers don't considered that code so stable).  Anyway, it seems that
we're near of a goal (at least, what's the problem with the de struct
member is allocated and pointed out to some 2.3.x kernel addition, so I
think it can be repaired for rc5 next week).   Let's see...
In any case, thanks for your aid folks.
