[linux-lvm] RAID+LVM+DEVFS+2.4.0-test1=BUG???

[Luca Berra]

hello i am having problems with the lvm tools on the setup
i mentioned in the subject, as you can see from the traces attached
if i do pvcreate /dev/md2, it looks up geometry from the first scsi disk
and fails since the second partition there is an extended partition
if i do pvcreate /dev/md/2 it fails nevertheless with a different error

any ideas?

Regards,
L.
