The script /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit has the following code to initialise
LVM. Why
is this necessary? Everything else in /dev can remain safely as it is
between boots, why is LVM unlike everything else in that it requires it's
device node to be re-created, why can't it get allocated a number in
devices.txt?
It's a dynamic major/mior. I suppose it could check that the current
dynamic major/minor matches what's on the filesystem...
