Re: [linux-lvm] Problems compiling device-mapper 1.00.08 on RedHat7.2 with linux-2.4.22

["Donald Murray P.Eng." <donald murray pason com>]

Thanks for your quick reply, Alasdair. That allowed me to build device-mapper.

Now I'm having problems building LVM2. It's breaking on BLKBSZGET:
device/dev-io.c: In function `_get_block_size':
device/dev-io.c:112: `BLKBSZGET' undeclared (first use in this function)
device/dev-io.c:112: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
device/dev-io.c:112: for each function it appears in.)
device/dev-io.c: In function `dev_get_size':
device/dev-io.c:219: `BLKGETSIZE64' undeclared (first use in this function)
make[1]: *** [device/dev-io.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/dmurray/kernel/LVM2.2.00.08/lib'
make: *** [lib] Error 2
dmurray dmdev:/home/dmurray/kernel/LVM2.2.00.08> 

Any suggestions for this one?
