A few bits have been lost during the kernel merge. Please have a look at http://linux.msede.com/lvm/doc/BUGS In short: You need to apply a kernel patch. There is currently no 2.3.49 patch but the 2.3.48 should work. patch-2.3.48-lvm - patch against kernel 2.3.48 > I even tried aplying that patch-lvm_0.8final, didnt want to apply > though. This is not for the kernel side. It's against the LVM tools.
