that is I think the real issue for people like me. One day I will have to
upgrade my servers to kernel 2.6, and all of them are on LVM1. I need to
be able to upgrade them. with EVMS I can do so, but after I will have
other problems because of operator, now used to LVM command line (that is
the same they are using on other Unices), will also have to learn another
command line. If I am not wrong, the LVM1 like command line is going to
disappear from EVMS, and that will be a problem for many users.
EVMS is powerfull but somehow too complex for many.
So my 2 eurocents are for EVMS with "also" a LVM1 like command line.
