cant LVM be used to make several large ext3 partitions look as one?
Uh, no.
You give a partition a filesystem *after* the LVM layer, so you can
LVM lots of 8GB partitions into a bigger LVM volume and logical disk
but you still need to give it a filesystem, which won't be ext3. I
think you need to do a bit of reading ;o)
Thats what I remember too, I thought there was still a way to do it
though. Come to think about it now, I might be getting GPT mixed up
in this, but I remember others here that have volumes 10TB and more.
gpt helps with big partitions. Then you do the LVM+RAID stuff. Then you
apply a filesystem.
