I've done this on several occasions. If you want to play with various scenarios in LVM, I'd recommend reading the LVM How-To @ http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ . Sections 11 & 13 cover the most common tasks you'll encounter in LVM. Play around, don't be afraid to break things, and if you have questions feel free to give the list a shout. -- Drew "Nothing in life is to be feared.
