needed.
Correct me if I'm misunderstanding, but isn't this the main purpose
of LVM and similar technologies?
I KNEW IT!
Someone was bound to pull LVM out of the hat! Even after
I specifically stated that LVM was not something I would
consider.
Whatever LVM is intended to accomplish, it is not something
I will willingly install on my machine at present. I already
have one machine I have to struggle with LVM on FC4, and that is
more than enough. I don't want to try to back-port it to my
FC2 machine.
Thanks for the kind message, though!

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
