There isn't one. Partitionable arrays are not implemented in partman, and I am not sure whether they'll ever be. Much for the same reasons that you list LVM as a viable alternative, but also because partitionable array device naming is *on crack* and no bootloader I know properly supports partitionable arrays yet. > So other than wishlist items for more features, what's wrong with > LVM as it stands now?

But you said it's "perfect", and being the pedantic donkey that I am, I said "you wish" and put a smiley behind it. Nobody's perfect.
