Please see the INSTALL file in the root LVM 0.8.1 directory for more details on
patching the kernel.

lvm-0.8final-2.2.16TL.patch - Kernel patch to add LVM 0.8final to 2.2 kernels.
                              This patch requires Stephen Tweedie's RAWIO patch
			      (for LVM snapshots), and also Ingo Molnar's
			      RAID 0.9 kernel patches (for a properly working
			      RAID system).  These are included with most
			      (all?) vendor kernel source trees (TurboLinux,
                              Red Hat Mandrake, SuSE, etc).  Should also work
			      for patched 2.2.17 kernel sources.
