[linux-lvm] LVM 1.0.1 to LVM2 upgrade path

[Dossy <dossy panoptic com>]

Everyone,

I'm currently running on Linux 2.4.20 with LVM 1.0.1 26/11/2001 ... yes,
it's outdated, but this is a production system and LVM has been
(seemingly) stable without any issues.

I'm figuring I should consider upgrading to LVM2, but I don't want to
just go "trying it" -- is there a specific upgrade path I have to take?
Is LVM2 backward compatible with LVM1?  Are there any "gotchas" and are
they documented somewhere?

Any pointers to documentation would be appreciated.  Meanwhile, I'm busy
Googling ...
