You're right - I was mistaken about using upper/lower to switch between
units in LVM2.
It doesn't change the fact that this is why you're seeing a difference
between the output of fdisk & the lvm tools though. LVM2 reports the
size using binary prefixes (powers-of-two) and fdisk uses the SI units.

Bryn.
