[linux-lvm] lvextend segfault

[Per Wigren]

Linux-LVM-Bug at sistina.com, as told in the README, doesn't work so I send
it here instead.
I'm not on the list so please CC wigren at home.se!

I created a VG with only /dev/hdd1. Then I try to extend that VG with
/dev/hdc1, but lvextend segfaults.
Still, vgdisplay says it's there, but "VG Size: 42.95 GB", which is the
size of /dev/hdd1 ONLY.... /dev/hdc1 is 29 GB so it should say "72
GB"...
They trying to remove /dev/hdc1 from the VG it says it doesn't belong to

VG??!!!

Please help!

I think this is best explained with an example:

stormie:/usr/src/temp/LVM/0.9.1_beta3# vgextend -v vg02 /dev/hdc1
vgextend -- locking logical volume manager
vgextend -- checking volume group name "vg02"

I use kernel 2.4.0ac12 and 0.9.1beta3 of the lvm-tools.
