Hi all,

To investigate in more details the 'unalign access' problem I met with evms,
I need first to upgrade to evms-1.1.0 with kernel 2.4.19.

After this upgarde, all evms tools failled and I got folowing kernel message
at the console:
kernel BUG at blkpg.c:252!                                       
evms: ldev_mgr: error(-28): creating logical disk for device(8,0).      
      

at line 250 of /drivers/block/blkpg.c I read:
...
   return put_user(uulval << 9, (u64 *)arg);
...

In fact, with message '... at blkpg.c:252!', I am awaiting 'printk(... _FUNCTION_)'.
Also I do not understand where this "BUG" is trapped(?) and which can the
actual source of this new evms problem.

Thanks in advance for all advise,
    Joel

PS: I test it on my i386 without encountering this problem.
