Q: Howto regenerate device files

Hi

I created a volume group and few lvols. After a reboot I did a vgscan which found my volume group. So far so good. Unfortunately the device files for the lvols were gone, I'm using udev.
I tried to regenerate them using vgmknodes -v without success:

root # vgdisplay -v
Finding all volume groups
Finding volume group "stick"

My system is:

kernel 2.6.11-gentoo-r6

root # lvm version
LVM version: 2.00.33 (2005-01-07)
Library version: 1.00.19-ioctl (2004-07-03)
Driver version: 4.4.0

Is there any way to recover?

Thanks for your time.

Regards,
Chris
