The only reasons people find LVM complicated is that the man pages |
| 12 |
could stand some re-writing and that most of the guides out on the |
| 13 |
intartubes and writing by people equally confused. They give a bunch of |
| 14 |
examples and don't explain what all the building blocks of LVM are. |

Neil said earlier to spend an hour learning it - this is excellent |
| 17 |
advice. |

The gentoo docs were very good last time I looked at them, but that was |

3+ years ago. I doubt they've changed much. |
