Yup.  Just what I have been asking for.  It was not so bad pre-devfs
to use the version that is in the kernel, but now that Mandrake is
mandating devfs usage, it is time to get a more recent (that shipping
in the kernel) LVM.

Let's not wait for the LVM folks to get 1.0.1rc2 pushed up into the
kernel please.

Thanx,
