Hi,

I have a laptop, which came with an OS from Microsoft on it, and where I have
installed Debian .

Because I wanted to preserve the Microsoft OS, debian created only one lvm
physical volume for installing itself, with 2 logical volumes, one for swap
and the other for itself. I later shrunk the debian logical volume to create a
third one for installing lfs. Now I have a working lfs, thanks to the "About
initramfs" page, with lxde. But I am stuck to swap on lvm.

Suspend to disk seems to work well, but I cannot resume from the disk image,
because the kernel cannot resume from an lvm volume, and initramfs lacks that
possibility. So I plan to add the missing bits to init.in.

Now my question is: do you think it is interesting to add this possibility
into the book? Note that I do not anticipate it to be a big addition...

I really don't think it should go into the book. LVM is really not a great choice for partitions when you only have one disk drive anyway. Actually I don't think LVM is ever a good partition type for /.
