[linux-lvm] Xen, LVM, Snapshots Random Kernel Panics

[Norbert Phillipps]

Hi all,

I'm currently running lvm 2.02.25, and device-mapper 1.02.19 on  
kernel 2.6.20.13 with Xen 3.1 on Gentoo Linux

I randomly have kernel panics when creating snapshots and also when  
removing snapshots.

Attached is one of the kernel panics that I have seen while creating  
a snapshot.  I'm trying to find a stable combination of kernel, lvm,  
and Xen version.

Thanks!
