This doesn't completely solve every problem, but maybe we can get

more unique and descriptive LVM names.
Thoughts?
Now that we've moved partitioning later, this seems more
reasonable. Do
we ever end up with localhost as the VG name with the patch?
With what I have there now, yes. I think if localhost is the
hostname, we should probably just fallback to doing VolGroupXX as we
have been.
Also, it has the downside of making things less consistent from
machine
to machine if you have multiple machines. But perhaps the
advantages of
moving drives from machine to machine outweigh that disadvantage
I mentioned that to people at FUDCon and the general consensus seemed
to be that people would prefer the name differences to gain the
capability of moving disks around more easily.
