[gentoo-user] Re: Extending a partition with LVM on it

 What I want to know is, how would I go about filling the gap to have a
 single, large partition for maindisk?

You don't need to. You'd create a new partition, make that a pv (pvcreate)
and then run vgextend to include that new pv in maindisk.

 For the moment I added a new partition (via cfdisk, that I did dare do)
 that takes up the entire gap and extended maindisk to that. 

Fine.

 It's not 
 what I wanted, but it works.

What do you dislike about this?

I don't really know, it just feels... like a hack. It just doesn't
seem 'right'. But that's just me. If what I have now is just fine, then
I'll leave it at that.
