8 This is LVM2, the rewrite of The Linux Logical Volume Manager.
9 LVM supports enterprise level volume management of disk and disk
10 subsystems by grouping arbitrary disks into volume groups. The total
11 capacity of volume groups can be allocated to logical volumes, which
12 are accessed as regular block devices.
14 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper is the LVM
15 (Linux Logical Volume Management) Team's implementation of a
16 minimalistic kernel-space driver that handles volume management,
17 while keeping knowledge of the underlying device layout in
18 user-space. This makes it useful for not only LVM, but EVMS,
19 software raid, and other drivers that create "virtual" block devices.

27 Install the standard suite of lvm2 programs. When this option is not
28 set, only dmsetup is installed.
