Impossible to do. Nothing at all can be done without knowledge.

IMO a better question is: How hard is it, to get proper
knowledge?

Answer: Easy, thanks to the excellent LVM howto. See

I'm not sure about that "easy" part just yet.  It takes me a while to get my light bulb to come on and at least glow a bit.  Here is what I found in my kernel menuconfig:

Do you use any of the other EXPERIMENTAL drivers?  Keep in mind, I don't use modules on my rig, except for nvidia.  I just don't, never did.  I put it all in there and go for broke.  LOL

May start a new thread on this, unless the OP is following along as well.  ??  What you think?
