The last time I created a large HW RAID5 volume (1.6 TB) the kernel was unable to see all of it... If I create several smaller block devices (like 400GB each) can LVM bind them together into a larger single filesystem? ( I am aiming for 4-6 TB )
You need to use a 2.6 kernel and compile the kernel with support for large block devices. In "make menuconfig", "device drivers -> block devices -> Support for Large Block Devices".

THANKS! :-)
Problem #1 solved,
still wondering if there might be an option for a compressed filesystem.... anyone??
