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

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