Makes perfect sense to me as well. |

Having installed LVM - and then removed it due to issues; namely, the fact that |
| 14 |
one of the hard drives died taking out the whole LVM group, leaving the OS |
| 15 |
unbootable, and not easily fixable. There was a thread on that (started by me) a |
| 16 |
while back (over a year). |

So, perhaps if I had a RAID to underly so I could mirror drives under LVM for |
| 19 |
recovery I'd move to it again. But otherwise it is just a PITA waiting to |
| 20 |
happen. |
