>From my notes -- go to expert partitioner (select Custom Partitioning). First create partitions for /boot and /. Then create partitions you will use for your volume group -- but do not mount and do not format! Then select 'Volume Management' and create a volume group, using the DASD you prepared. You can then create logical volumes you assign to the various mount points you want (/var, /usr, etc)
