Okay; I've never (succesfully) created an LVM partition before, but I
*believe* I'm doing everything right... and it Just Keeps Bombing.  I've
done it now on two different kernels, two different controllers, and no
go.  Here's what I've tried for this go-around:

- pvcreate /dev/sda
- vgcreate -s 16M vg1 /dev/sda [It's (now) a 300 GB 3Ware 6800 array]
- lvcreate -L 265G -n lv1 vg1  [I've varied the size from 10 MB to 265G]

Every time I execute the lvcreate, I get, plain and simple,
"Segmentation fault".  A "-v" thrown in reveals that the last thing it's
trying to do before bombing is 

lvcreate -- creating logical volume VGDA in kernel

So, anyone have any idea where I'm stubbing my toe?  I'm sure I don't.

Thanks,

-Ken
