could not read device /dev/lvm

[James S. White]

I even get the "could not read device /dev/lvm" error when I use the
cut-n-paste example from the wiki...

################################################################################
# Simple LVM example
disk_config sda  bootable:1
primary /boot 500 ext3 rw
primary -       4096-   -       -

disk_config lvm
vg my_pv        sda2
my_pv-_swap     swap    2048    swap    sw
my_pv-_root     /       2048    ext3 rw
