This hook patch is needed to run backported kernels on Hardy systems with root-in-lvm and partitionless PVs because Ubuntu kernels after 2.6.24 need "sysfs_scan = 0" set in the lvm.conf file. Without it, a Hardy system can hang at the "waiting for root file system" boot message.
The change that was applied to the Karmic package also applies to the older lvm2-2.02.26-1ubuntu9 package that is in Hardy. I've got it in a PPA here:
