How about documentation? I still haven't seen any documentation that would really give me a change to _understand_ what's the relation between DM and LVM2 or how I should set up my system. Something similar to LVM-HOWTO, I mean. Should I do most things just like I'm used to with LVM tools (pvcreate, vgcreate, lvcreate and then just mount) or should I use dmsetup for something - and for what? Oh, and now that I'm already writing this on the list, I might as well ask a few questiong about used and usable versions as well. My laptop and my home-server are both running Debian Testing. Packages lvm2-1.95.10-2 andf dmsetup-0.96.04-2 and libdevmapper0-0.96.04-2 are available, both packaged by Andres Solomon. I guess I'd have to install these? Will these work with - for instance - kernels 2.4.20-rc1-ac4 and 2.5.47-ac6 or should I patch my kernels?
