         LVM 2.0/Device-Mapper 1.0 available at ftp.sistina.com
	            (for kernels 2.4.20 and 2.4.21)

o New metadata display tools with a configurable column-based output
  (pvs, vgs, lvs)

o New format for LVM metadata providing enhanced resilience

o LVM2 Tools can also use LVM1 metadata

o Conversion between LVM1 and LVM2 metadata formats to
  enable in-place migration of existing LVM1 volume groups

o Configuration file for specifying which devices LVM may use, logging 
  levels and more

o Arbitrary extension of striped logical volumes (beyond LVM1 limits)

o Removal of the 256 Logical Volume limit per system (multiple dynamic
  major numbers)


The port of the snapshot and pvmove functionality to Linux 2.6 is underway
