Hiya

I find mylvmbackup  to work very well. Basically locks mysql, uses / 
creates lvm snapshotting. release mysql lock, mount lvmsnapshot (at this 
stage, mysql is left to its own devices), and then you can tar the snapshot.

It works with both MYISAM and innodb.

I use mylvmbackup up with DumpPreUserCmd.
