Logical Volume Manager Setup
 

Curious if anyone has managed to get LVM running on any Linux distro? If so, did you come across any particular annoyances or problems?

I am trying to get it going on a Mandrake 8.1 system.
I have tried various versions and they all seem to fail whenever I try to create a Physical Volume. I know I have my partitions set right.

Just curious if this software is worth the hassle.

Thanks for any personal insights.
