[Bug 55743] pvcreate doesn't work

[sles]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kernel-image-2.6.15-26-amd64-generic-di

This is 6.06 amd64:

root at dm:~# pvcreate /dev/sda5
Physical volume "/dev/sda5" successfully created
root at dm:~# pvcreate /dev/sda5
Failed to write physical volume "/dev/sda5"
root at dm:~# pvcreate /dev/sda5
Physical volume "/dev/sda5" successfully created

Then:

root at dm:~# vgcreate vg00 /dev/sda5
No physical volume label read from /dev/sda5
/dev/sda5 not identified as an existing physical volume
Unable to add physical volume '/dev/sda5' to volume group 'vg00'.


but it works with Xen's 2.6.16 kernel

** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
