Try it out and see what happens. Create an lv using all available space |
| 10 |
on all the pvs and if it's created, then things must be working right |
| 11 |
and lvm doesn't need the 8e partiton type. |

If not, then simply use fdisk to change the partition type and try it |
| 14 |
again. Then you will have proven practical usage (which means |
| 15 |
something) as opposed to opinions (which mean very little) |
