Hi everyone, Got a new 300GB disk for my old beater box here and want to add it to support the user files. It shows as uninitialized in LVM as /dev/hdb. I would like to format it and make a single partition for user data. What is the "best" method? I noticed that there was an initialize button on the LVM display, but I don't press such buttons unless and until I am sure of what they will really do. In the "old days" it was format and partition, then create a mount point and add it to fstab. But with all the automated tools I figure there must be a slicker and more efficient way that also will encode some necessary info for all the graphical tools that exist today.
