LVM-Bootdisk



Hi

I am currently a little bit experimentating with installing debian
directly into lvm. Theory is not so difficult, and it works with a lot
of handwork during the installation-process. One of the main problems is
that the lvm-binarys are so big. So they cannot be on the bootdisk. But
getting them from a mounted cdrom or floppy works.

But for beeing able to install a system into lvm, I need a kernel with
LVM-support. So I need some documentation how I can build a bootdisk
with a customized kernel. I now got the kernel in /usr/src/linux and
making a kernel-image with make-kpkg works. Where can I now find the
steps which are needed to create a set of boot-floppies for this kernel?
