[linux-lvm] vgextend

[Heinz J . Mauelshagen]

Kannan,

Your problem is caused by a LVM tool and kernel code mismatch.

Please follow the instructions in the INSTALL and PATCHES/README files
which come with the LVM source distribution in order to patch your kernel
correctly and generate/install it afterwards.

Regards,
Heinz    -- The LVM Guy --
