:-) After a disk crash involving LVM, I am now in camp no-LVM :-) 
Maybe now it is better, or something, but I also learned that simpler 
is more robust, and besides with current size of HDD I have more 
space than I need, so LVM would do nothing for me.

I also don't use swap (and this is approach for 20 years I guess), if 
some program has to crash because of OOM, it better crash fast, than 
involve reading and writing like crazy on the disk.

In my case I now use such setup:
* small boot partition
* system partition (50-60GB)
* second system partition 
* home partition

For my home computer (this one) I use also data partition, 
for "experimental" computer I add another home partition.

Why two system, and two home partitions? To install another system, 
new version of it, etc. I don't ever upgrade the system directly (the 
one I use). 

Hope it helps a bit :-).

Kind regards,
