In case anybody cares, I have an experience here to share:

When I do a pvcreate on /dev/md/3 with devfs, pvcreate says file
doesn't exist (talking about /dev/md/3).

Also dies with /dev/discs/disc1/part1. (problem with symlinks?)
When I use /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/part1 it works.

When I take off devfs (append=devfs=nomount), then /dev/md3 works.
Also /dev/hdc1 works.

Using LVM "0.9.1_beta5_a", and Kernel "2.4.1".
