The current text in the errata is: * LVM failure on Sparc32 (at least). If you want to create LVM volume groups, the physical volumes must not reside at the beginning of the disk, or else activating new logical volumes within the volume group will fail. This is due to some unforeseen quirks in Sun disk labels. This failure happened because the the sun disk label resides at the beginning of the disk and the first partition may start from the beginning of the disk. Hence the partition table becomes part of the first partition. Most file systems are smart enough not to write data at the beginning of their place but this is not the case with the phisical volumes for LVM or RAID and not the case with the swap spaces. The users MAY NOT create swap spaces or partitions for LVM and RAID at the beginning of the disk or the partition table will be subsequently completely erased.

Proofread request for patch which fixes a/an errors
Hi all, I checked the website for errors related to the indefinite articles "a" and "an". As usual I found again many errors and need your approval before I apply this patch. I will not commit it when I get no OK! A short summary of this rule can be found on http://www.fortunecity.com/bally/durrus/153/gramch14.html#2 Nevertheless this article doesn't answer all my questions: Please check the following: A or an FTP|URL|HTML|LDAP? (Both versions are used regularly) Why is "an SSH (key|...)" used so often and not "a SSH"? Please note that I also attached files "a" and "an" which contain the grep output of phrases containing a resp. an where I'm not sure and which contain probably many errors too.
