    Does this apply to RAID 0 as well? 

    I've got several boxes running with:

    CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y
    # CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G is not set
    CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y

    And 2-4 GiB of ram under 2.4.18, with LVM 1.03. 

    I'm trying to get LVM 1.07 to compile with 2.4.21 with :
    
    CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y
    # CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G is not set
    CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y
    CONFIG_HIGHIO=y


    Why is this bad?
