I can confirm that upgrading to lvm2 and libdevmapper solves the problem.

I have built sarge packages, if anyone would like them, let me know and I will put them up on the web somewhere.  Of course no gaurantees that these packages don't eat your machine from the inside out.

Did you use the standard apt-get to get the packages or installed it from some other location manually ? Basically are these versions standard from the debian repo, or we need to get it manually from someplace.
