Thanks for the prompt response - so I take it that it's not possible to create an LVM with existing paritions (for example: I have a second HD with 20 Gig - presently I have two 9.5 gig ReiserFS partitions on it for the Cooker Rsync downloads and backups . . . if I wanted to create an LVM on that drive - I would have to blow away the existing paritions and recreate them under a newly created LVM partition?)
Also, after the LVM partition is created - how does one manage it (are there any graphical tools for that?)
