Hi again, I've reconfigured and repartitioned my drives and now I run
into this error message:

# lvcreate -i52 -I8 -l225420 -n mydata data_volume
  Insufficient space in params[] to write target parameters.
  Unable to build table for 'mydata'
  Couldn't populate device 'data_volume-mydata'.
  Failed to activate new LV.

vgdisplay says this, if it helps:

I've copied a new lvm2.log.gz file to:

Let me know if there's anything else I can provide.

Thanks,
Mark
