I think it's mostly six of one and half a dozen of the other. If you are not using sparse volumes, disk creation can take quite a lot of time, so it might be logistically easier to batch the creation of a lot of volumes before you start installing VMs, especially if you need to re-run the install process a few times as you tweak parameters. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
