  ok, i finally have a kernel that boots off of my LVM root fs, by
following the instructions here:

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild

the section, "Using Ubuntu Kernel Configuration," so i'm not going to
mess with success, except to ask, could i use the ubuntu-maverick git
tree instead of ubuntu-lucid?  thanks.
