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, Wol
