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/ So I was just about to implement LVM for several disks (6gig - 10gig) on my 2.4.20 system. The question is: is this advisable for future compatibility..? I think I read here recently that LVM will be supported by LVM2, but what's this EVMS stuff..? I trust LVM(2) isn't being phased out..? Stroller. EVMS (Enterprise Volume Management System) is just another type of volume management. I believe it was originally developped by IBM, not sure though. As far as future compatibility is concerned, I think you'd have to check with the respective developers of EVMS and/or LVM2. Present versions of EVMS provide backwards compatibility with LVM1. My impression is that with the introduction of the device mapper block device in the kernel, things have simply been moved much more away from kernelspace and into userspace. Which one would be the best bet for the future, i.e. offer more compatibility with the 2.6.x series? Your guess is as good as mine. As for me, I would not want to do without the flexibility that volume management offers. So far I have only had positive experiences with LVM, apart from the minor shock when I found out that it was no longer a part of the future vanilla kernel series. So far I like EVMS as a replacement, LVM2 I haven't tried out yet.

Cheers, Mark -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list Which reminds me: few weeks ago I was trying to get gentoo (tried both vanilla-kernel gentoo-kernel) to recognize my firewire DVD/CDRW attached to a Dell laptop. Only thing that did the trick was to put sbp2 in the /etc/modules.autoload and then put into /etc/conf.d/local.start: rmmod sbp2; sleep 3; modprobe sbp2; sleep 3; echo scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 0 /proc/scsi/scsi; modprobe sr_mod; Because when the module was inserted by the bootscripts (because of its presence in /etc/modules.autoload), it always resulted in sth. along the lines of sbp2: Error logging into SBP2-device - login failed.
