So I just setup LVM for the first time and everything works great...
except the guide I was following never told me to set the partition
type of the disks to LVM (8e). My partitions are still "Linux" (83):
does it matter? I had a friend tell me he lost data b/c he booted off
a boot disk with an older version of linux and it fsck'ed his LVM
partitions like they were plain ext2.
Does anyone know if this matters?
Thanks in advance,

Isn't it possible to just change the partition type with fdisk without
losing any data?
