LVM 1 isn't supported anymore, is replaced by LVM 2, but it's compatable, you only need new tools. Try 'apt-get install lvm2'

This is definitly not true.

I've been using gcc 3.x.x since quite a while to compile the kernel (now: 3.3.2) without any problem.

All the 2.6-test kernels I tried, except test-8, functioned without any problems. And even with test-8, the problem wasn't compiler related.
