I've partially succeeded running a 'sudo make check', but the procedure hangs on the test, 'shell/lvconvert-raid.sh' Running the test with verbose output: PATH=$PATH:/sbin sudo make check T=lvconvert-raid VERBOSE=1 the test hangs on the line: lvcreate --type raid4 -i 3 -l 3 -n LV1 @PREFIX@vg after which any subsequent lvm command hangs, until I reboot the system. This happens for both 2.02.98 and 2.02.100 versions. (I've also been unable to get lvcreate --type raid4 working outside the test) This is with the default LFS 7.3 kernel: 3.8.1 and 3.8.1 kernel headers, with crypt, snapshot, mirror and raid device-mapper targets. The tests completely fail with a 3.9.7 kernel, with errors such as "Snapshot target support missing from kernel" (lib/activate/dev_manager.c:2243 in 2.02.100). Can you run a simple lvcreate from the command-line? If so, then perhaps there is a problem with the loop device setup (losetup from utils-linux), which I believe the tests use? Hope that helps.
