7 My guess is a conflict between the device-mapper version and your
8 kernel. 2.6.7 is quite ancient, and looking through
9 /usr/share/doc/device-mapper-1.02.05/WHATS_NEW.gz, there were a lot of
10 changes to how the device nodes are created in the last couple of
11 years. Possibly one of those changes broke backwards compatibility.
