Xen users - Aug 2005 - lvm in xenU

Hello,

just quick ''q'' - is it possible to use lvm inside of xenU?
i''ve just installed
xen0 and xenU from option-c, and lvcreate in xenU is giving me this:
  /proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found
  Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel?
  Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver.

So, is it possible? If it is - what should i do?

Absolutely it''s possible.  You probably need to add it to the xenU
kernels''
config:

cd linux-2.6.whatever-xenU
make ARCH=xen menuconfig # change the config here to include LVM, RAID, 
whatever.
cd ..
make dist

Cheers,
Mark
