Did that indeed. I copied the .config from -pre3 and used the good old
"make config" and the enter key ;)

I got the ioctl32 patch once again via the web mail-archive and did a
"s/       /^V<tab>/g" to get a correct format.

Now I've got a running system with 2.4.2 and LVM-0.9.1-beta 6 including
the ioctl32 patch!

I just created a 16 Gig (2x8) VG/LV and it looks fine.

Now I can start playing around to see how stable the system really is.
