Incidently I have just finished a backport of the haad-device-mapper for
NetBSD-5.

I have used the different parts of this for two month now and had only
the problem, that some features are not (yet?) ported, which prevented
me migrating used disks out of a volume group. All other runs fine with
my shiny 4,5 TB logical volume consisting of two RAID5s 8-) No panic, no
corrupted filsystems except once after a hard crash caused by a failed
disk.

Now I have all the bits wrapped up in a little source tree to be imported
into a NetBSD-5_STABLE tree and a bunch of patches which fiddle the additional
sources into the NetBSD build.sh system and add the /etc/rc.d/lvm script.

I put an archive with a terse README at

  http://serpens.de/~zza/netbsd/lvm2.tgz

But you have to know how to build your system and kernel to use it.

For questions and comments free feel to ask me.
