Yes, lvm has been removed from the 2.6.x kernels. And I was unable to find lvm patches for the 2.6.x series on the Sistina site, home of the makers of linux-lvm. There are two things you can do, both of which require you to include the device-mapper in your kernel (in the Multi-device support (RAID and LVM) section): -LVM2 -EVMS (which is what I used) http://evms.sourceforge.net/ One thing that I did not find so easy with EVMS was getting my /etc/fstab right. The rest of the installation instructions are rather straight-forward. The entries in /etc/fstab that worked for me were: # --------- to be used with LVM (kernel 2.4.21) /dev/vg_gentoo1/lv_root_gentoo / reiserfs noatime 0 0 /dev/vg_gentoo1/lv_usr_gentoo /usr reiserfs noatime 0 0 /dev/vg_gentoo1/lv_tmp_gentoo /tmp reiserfs noatime 0 0 # ---------- end of LVM config # ------ to be used with EVMS (kernel 2.6.x) #/dev/evms/lvm/vg_gentoo1/lv_root_gentoo / reiserfs noatime 0 0 #/dev/evms/lvm/vg_gentoo1/lv_usr_gentoo /usr reiserfs noatime 0 0 #/dev/evms/lvm/vg_gentoo1/lv_tmp_gentoo /tmp reiserfs noatime 0 0 # ------- end of EVMS config HTH.
