Hi! Recently I bought Gentoo 1.4 and installed it on my 2nd HD's free space (WD - 80G) wanting to have a slow transition from SuSE to Gentoo (to keep old mail, news ..).
I emerged binary packages of X & KDE and then started to slowly emerge other components. However, three days ago, my old HD (IBM) started to *die* and I can clearly hear the sounds of imminent death. Now I bought a new HD - 120 G while my /home partition is on WD (together with Gentoo install.) Today I'm going to trash my old IBM HD (together with SuSE :-) and install a new one, so I'm thinking about LVM install. Do you recommend it for two HDs (120G & 80G) install on home machine? (the 80G HD I'd like to use mostly for future video-editing and I'm used to have Reiser fs on my partitions - except /boot.) In Gentoo's LVM docs it is recommended NOT to put /etc /lib /mnt /proc /sbin /dev /root in LVM partition. Any hint?
