know the results if you test.

Was able to borrow a disk from work, so I'm going to make a duplicate of my
system disk and setup a new LVM on two other disks. Then I'm going to
upgrade it to 2.6.0-test9 with devicemapper.

This way, I can learn from my mistakes without loosing my current setup, it
should also give a better idea of how my new setup will perform once I do it
on the real system. Going to do some benchmarking before and after I update
to see what kind of performance difference to expect (if any).

Any tips, ideas or experience anyone want to share before I jump into the
upgrade frenzymode later this evening?
