You can, but you need your initramfs to load the appropriate modules. (I do not - I prefer to make a standard size partition for Root, and then use LVM to add logical volumes to that as and when necessary) I have everything on raid but not lvm - but LVM I then use for /var/cache /usr/lib/openoffice /usr/share/openclipart /usr/src as will as for my home directory and several subdirectories of that and a backup and archiving area -- Alan Chandler http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
