Okay, I must be missing something obvious, but...how do I get from kernel
2.4.19 to 2.6.0-testX without breaking LVM along the way?  The LVM1 tools,
when run at 2.6 startup, fail after tripping a kernel message that module
lvm_mod couldn't be found (which is sensible, since 2.6 has no such module
that I can find).  The LVM2 tools don't want to run on 2.4 because the
LVM1 driver is present.  So I have no tools that will run in both
environments, meaning there's no way back if I don't like 2.6, and no way
to try out LVM2 beforehand.  What have I failed to see?
