Well you can build LVM into the kernel, but you still won't be able to hit your root filesystem until you do a vgscan, so you need a script with a small ramdisk rootfs that will do that and then pivot_root(8) so you can continue booting normally. (There is a script that generates such an initrd image; google lvm2root.) -- Sidney CAMMERESI http://www.cheesecake.org/sac/
