[linux-lvm] Error - "device-mapper: request is larger than bl ock size b_size"

[ERG at e-r-solutions.com]

Greetings,

The link to the latest stable device-mapper patch (dm_2002-08-23.patch.bz2)
on http://people.sistina.com/~thornber appears to be broken.

Not being a bitkeeper user (and having heard that the changes I want haven't
yet made it to CVS), I'm wondering if there's another place to get this
newest patch.  Any suggestions?


Manuel Gomez

Not neccessarily, I really shouldn't have put that sanity check in
... too many filesystems don't set the block size for the block device
correctly.

If you want to get rid of these messages and are not a bitkeeper user
you can get the latest stable patchset from
http://people.sistina.com/~thornber
