OK...I finally got it to work...However I couldn't put the / or /boot partitions under LVM control which would have been perfect... So I created a 4 Gb / partition which contains /boot as well, and set lilo to boot off of that. Everything else will be under LVM control...
which problems did you find in putting / (or /boot) on LVM over MD? (btw i am running such a setup)
Is there a howto out there on how to combine raid and lvm? Is there a neednot that i know of
to write one?probably yes
