Well, the CONFIG_SCSI_QLOGIC_ISP driver isn't supported, and you
may have noticed prints big warning messages when you boot with it.
Fortunately, the CONFIG_SCSI_QLOGIC_1280 driver has been extended
to handle the 1020 and 1040 devices. I've been using that for a
while now on my ds10.

I'm not using the qlogic controller as boot controller. I'm mooting from
the internal disk connected to LSI controller.
In any case I'll try out the suggested 1280 right now.
Can I build a modular kernel with the 2.6 kernel series ?
I would find it handy to have som parts colpiled as modules.

Is LVM working on the alpha port 2.6 kernel series ?
If so where do I get libdevmapper so that I can build the userspace LVM
utils ?
I tryied downloading
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/dm/multipath-toolsmultipath-tools-0.4.3.tar.bz2
But I fail to compile it so I'm also unable tu build the userspace lvm
utils.

Works for me.

Same place as you'd get it for any other system. Doesn't your
distribution include it?

what do you think the 'dm' in that url stands for, hm?

'userspace lvm utils' can be found here:
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/lvm2
multipath tools might be something different ... :)

Are you using a redhat based distro (like suse, mandrake, alpha core or
indeed redhat )?
Are you using stock kernel, libraries and tools or did you haveto build
them yourself ?
Debian comes with LVM1 tools that do not work with 2.6 kernels so I need
to compile them myself or install some ready build binary package for
alpha processor and compatible with the libraries that come with debian3.
What alpha architecture are you running on ?

It may also have something more but it has libdevmapper in it ...
In any case I also tried downloading and compiling
device-mapper.1.00.07.tgz from the link in the LVM2.
It builds and installe fine but I still get compilation errore when I
build LVM2.
Configute is fine, here are a few lines concerning libdevmapper
checking libdevmapper.h usability... yes
checking libdevmapper.h presence... yes
checking for libdevmapper.h... yes
but when I try to compile:
gcc -c -I. -I../include -DLVM1_INTERNAL -DPOOL_INTERNAL
-DCLUSTER_LOCKING_INTERNAL -DSNAPSHOT_INTERNAL -DMIRRORED_INTERNAL
-DDEVMAPPER_SUPPORT -DO_DIRECT_SUPPORT -DHAVE_LIBDL -DHAVE_GETOPTLONG

I'm using kernel 2.6.11.7 downloaded from kernel.org.
Here's the relevent section for raid/lvm in config:

Do I need to patch kernel ?

Sorry to bother you all ... the problem was that I issued some options
during configuration to specify where the kernel was, apparently I
should only do that on 2.4 series kernels.
I re-extracted the kernel sources and started over again. It's nor
working fine now.
Thanks anyway
