I put / on a normal partition specifically because I wanted to avoid a init thingy. Only / and /boot are on normal partitions, everything else is on LVM. LVM takes a bit to get used to but when you run out of space or have way to much space, you can move things around easily. LVM is the best move I made in a good while. Thanks to all the folks who helped be convert too. :-D Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
