 _Description: Logical volume size:
  Please enter the size of the new logical volume. The size may be
  entered in the following formats: 10KB (Kilobytes), 10KiB (Kibibytes), 10MB
 (Megabytes), 10MiB (Mebibytes), 10GB (Gigabytes), 10GiB (Gibibytes), 10TB
 (Terabytes), 10TiB (Tebibytes). The default unit is Megabytes.

I reads OK as-is, but to avoid repetition of 'enter the size' you could
start the second sentence with something like "You can use the following
