Error with 2.5.50-dm-2; vanilla OK

Hi, I'm getting an error with 2.5.50-dm2 but vanilla 2.5.50 is OK.

When I try lvm vgchange -ay I get the error messages

Dec  9 21:49:54 dyndns12 kernel: device-mapper: allocating minor 0.
Dec  9 21:49:54 dyndns12 kernel: device-mapper: device /dev/hdb7 too small for target
Dec  9 21:49:54 dyndns12 kernel: device-mapper: internal error adding target to table
Dec  9 21:49:54 dyndns12 kernel: device-mapper: destroying table

3 of 4 LVs in the VG are OK

If I use vanilla 2.5.50 the LVs are created OK

Weird, the patch that is causing you the problem will be:

http://people.sistina.com/~thornber/patches/2.5-stable/2.5.50/2.5.50-dm-2/00005.patch

Though it still looks sane to me. Can you send me the lvm2 log from this vgchange along with the size in sectors of hdb7 please ?
