Further to lvm snapshots, I have read about 10 articles explaining the concept of LVM and how to set them up. All of them talk about using /dev/sdb, c, d or more for LVM. None uses /dev/sda
I am running a laptop and raspberry pi's, all with only 1 prime 'disk' and USB attached disks/sticks. Is LVM viable? I can see the benefit of re-sizing on the fly. I use multi-boot. I can see the possibility of /dev/sda1 and LVM using the rest. But is it viable, please?
