[ale] lvm for ubuntu install?

[Tim Watts]

Thanks.

It's looking like the installer will only let me create volume groups 
containing a single physical/logical volume. Is that right? Do I have to use 
the lvm commands to get multiple LVs in a VG?

What I'm aiming for flexibility: I want to keep data on separate partitions 
from the OS files and I want to be able to move free space between the 
partitions as needed. So the layout I want is something like this:

sda1:	/boot	ext2

VG1:
sda2:	PV1	spans entire partition
  LV1: 	/	ext4
  LV2:	/home	ext4
  LV3:	/srv	ext4
  LV4:	swap	(sensible?)

Any/all wisdom is much appreciated.
