     95         Kernel versions in the 4.1 and 4.2 series have a broken RAID
     96         implementation. If you want to use RAID style LV's, you should
     97         install a kernel with a version number above 4.2.4. Note that several
     98         tests use RAID logical volumes, and can generate a <quote>kernel
     99         oops</quote> with faulty kernel versions, which usually renders the
     100         system unusable.

     159      want to install the full package before running the tests, the minimal

     176      Those tests do not implement the <quote>expected fail</quote> possibility,
     177      and a small number of test failures is expected by upstream. More
     178      failures may happen because some kernel options are missing. For example,
     179      the lack of the <emphasis>dm-delay</emphasis> device mapper target may
     180      explain up to 10 failures or so. Some tests are flagged

     197      Some tests may hang with kernel versions within the 4.1 and 4.2 series (see
     198      above). They can be removed if necessary, for example: <command>rm
     199      test/shell/lvcreate-large-raid.sh</command>. The tests generate a lot
     200      of kernel messages, which may clutter your terminal. You can disable them
     201      by issuing <command>dmesg -D</command> before running the tests (do not
     202      forget to issue <command>dmesg -E</command> when the tests are done).
