[linux-lvm] PBs with LVM over software RAID ( and XFS ? ext2 reiserfs?)-2.4.7

[Jonathan DeHaan]

svetljo,
I think I've done what you are trying to do.

Starting with Mandrake 8.1b1:
kernel 2.4.9
patch-2.4.9-xfs-2001-08-26
lvm-1.0.1-rc2
xfsprogs-1.3.5
Apply xfs patch before doing make in lvm.
Configure lvmtools with --enable-static_link

/dev/md/0 is RAID0 over three partitions - hda1, sda1, sdb1
pvcreate /dev/md/0
vgcreate vg /dev/md/0
lvcreate -s 4G -n root vg
mkfs -t xfs /dev/vg/root
mount /dev/vg/root /mnt

No errors.

If this same sequence of commands produces errors on your system, then I
would suspect something other than md, lvm, or xfs. Unless you really have a
need to run both, I would not patch both XFS and JFS into the same kernel. I
also would not use modules for any filesystems that I expect to use daily.

Hope this helps,
Jonathan DeHaan
