Well, send the output of "ls -lFR /dev" after the LVM module is
loaded, but *before* you manually created those links. Then send a
list of the links that you had to create.
Specify whether you're using Unix98 ptys or BSD ptys. And whether
devpts is compiled or not, and whether it's mounted or not.
Also state which kernel broke. If the last kernel you tried wasn't
2.4.3, then go back in time compiling old kernels and find out which
one broke.

Richard....
