Hi Gregg,
did you have a look if swap space is used during your dd run?
If it is not in use, then the question is, if the problem is restricted
to swap space? Did you test your other lvm (it's lvm, isn't it?) volumes
as well?

running debian on any domu.
My partitions are drives created with lwm.
I'm having problems with my swap partiton getting corrupted. When I get
the problem, if I pull the data from the swap with dd and get errors. If
I wait a few minutes, the problems go away.
Has anybody seen this? Does anybody have any idea on howto solve this?
Please ask questions if you need more information.
