The problem seems to be that dm_mod wasn't loaded. Rebooting after creating a VG was enough to get dm_mod autoloaded. (I didn't reboot earlier, so I'm not sure whether a reboot after installing lvm2 would be enough). I'm guessing the simple fix is a wrapper script that checks whether dm_mod is already loaded, and either modprobes dm_mod, or warns the user that they need to load dm_mod. > Were you trying to use system-config-lvm on a freshly installed system? > Are you using anything uncommon (e.g. raid)? > Existing system, installed pre-etch, nothing unusual, Thanks Andrew V. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
