hello you have stumbled upon a (nother) nice bug in lvm
i asked for help twice on this list, none helped even bothered to answer,
anyway i found the bug, well there is more than one preventing you to use
raid and LVM, fixed that and pvmoved everything onto my lvm+raid5 (fixing another bug
in the process).
Well, i discovered that reiserfs + LVM + raid DOES NOT WORK, it actually filled
95% of my files with zeroes :)

(*use the tape luke*)

unluckyli the patch to fix lvm+raid was not on tape, so i will post it as soon
i manage to rewrite it from memory,  hold your breath and mail me personally if
i forget :)

BTW i am back with ext2 and it works

Regards.
