[linux-lvm] Manually creating device files in /dev for lvm.

[karl shaul <shaulk 013 net>]

  Can I manually  create device files (in /dev) for lvm? If so, where can I learn which
files are needed?
  I want to have a simple lvm configuration for a desktop: just one hard disk with a 
few LVs. I believe I can apriori determine the names involved, uuid, etc. Can I mknod
the device files so that no such files will be created dynamically?
