I would highly recommend that you using LVM.  Many people who are not
using LVM are kicking themselves for it later on. The benefits of LVM
is that is relatively easy to setup and can be expanded without
migration or data loss if you need more space in the future.  If you
need to migrate the data off your 80g, I suggest that you LVM your
200g, copy the data, over, then expand your lvm group for your 200g to
include your 80g.  The docs are on the myth site and it is REALLY
easy.  I would not suggest LVMing your root partition or whatever you
put your OS on since that will require more work, just use LVM for
your myth storage.
