10 do this:
11
12 # cd /var/log
13 # chown daemon.root syslog.d klog.d
14 # chmod 0700 syslog.d klog.d
15
16 Both of these directories should have been owned by daemon. This should fix
17 it. rm any files inside syslog.d and klog.d just to be sure.

19 Yep, LVM tools are included by default, although I think they are 0.9.1-beta4
20 or 5 and not beta-7. I'll make sure that our next kernel includes the latest
21 LVM patches and tools.
