Re: Linear mode starting with one partition.

[Dietmar Stein]

I think, he wants to have an extendable partition; just increasing it
when it is needed and therefore a LVM seems to be best.
Important filesystems should be regulary backed up to prevent data loss.

Greetings, Dietmar

p.s: I am speaking of the Logical Volume Manager for Linux that is
similar to that one from HP
