The <application>LVM2</application> package is a package that manages

|
logical partitions. It allows spanning of file systems across multiple

|
physical disks and disk partitions and provides for dynamic growing or

shrinking of logical partitions.

The check command must be run as the <systemitem

hang if at least one partition on a hard drive is not set up as a Linux

LVM partition (type 8e00). To test the results, issue: <command>make
|
|
check</command> as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem>

user. The test timings are very dependent on the speed of the disk(s),
|

and on the number of enabled kernel options.
