[linux-lvm] lvm 1.1-rc2 - vgscan core dumps

[John Wingenbach]

I am running into a problem with lvm and a 2.4.19 install.  I have built a 2.4.19 box w/ lvm 1.1-rc2.  When I run a vgscan, it core dumps.  When I run pvcreate on a lvm partition, I get a warning message saying that I need to run it w/ -ff.  Apparently it thinks the partition is in use with an existing volume group.  However, none are defined / created. The debug shows it working on a VG - rootvg.  However, that vg doesn't exist.  At least not on this install.  It used to exist on the previous install.  However, the system still thinks it exists somehow.  

Here's the debug of the vgscan prior to core:
