I guess I got mine from the handbook back in early 2003.  That is when I did my first install.

Also, as I stated, I have / and /boot on regular partitions and everything else on LVM.  Care to guess why I don't have / on a LVM too?  Yep, to avoid the init thingy.  I don't have /boot on LVM because grub didn't support it.
