As the editor of the wiki, I do my best :-)

Thing is, I don't have lvm or anything like that on my setup. So I'm
rather chary of writing about it because I don't have the experience - I
do feel it's a major failing of the wiki. When I rebuild my computer,
I'm going to set it up as "lvm over raid 5/6", but that's probably going
to be a little way away :-(

Once I get the opportunity, of course it'll get written up and put there
as a reference for others :-)

Cheers,
