Bug#271981: kernel: Please provide LVM snapshot in Sarge Debian 2.6 - kernels.



Package: kernel
Version: 2.6.x
Severity: wishlist

I like the new crypto support available in the 2.6 - kernels,
but it is a problem for me that I cannot create LVM snapshots any more, as I used to be able to do with 2.4:

$ unset LANG; ssh root@localhost lvcreate -s -l 3 -n rootfreezelv /dev/vg/rootlv
  snapshot: Required device-mapper target(s) not detected in your kernel
  lvcreate: Create a logical volume

[Generic lvcreate usage message omitted.]

I would very much appreciate if such a kernel made it into Sarge.

Regards, and thank you for providing fine software

Andreas
