Do you realy need 15 partitions on a singel drive?
Before I do such stuff, I put a new SCSI-Drive into the system, and then
recalculate, which partitions from the previous drive can be put onto
the new drive... then I do the partitioning and copy the stuff of all
partitions I do not need anymore from the first drive to the new drive
do a repartitioning on the first drive and copy the stuff back to it.
Since I have gotten several times problems with LVM because files went
bigger then one volume I prefer to install singel partitions of 300
GByte or build a Raid5 with 600 (3 HDDs), 900 (4 HDDs), 1200 (5 HDDs)
or more GBytes...
