[clug] logical volume becomes unstable when nearly full

[Kim Holburn]

Hi,

I have had very bad experiences with LVM.  Why use it?  You already  
have software RAID and partitioning.  The only reason I can see for  
using LVM is to join 2 volumes together.  If you're not doing that  
don't use LVM.
