Aha, that makes much more sense, I had to go in and use the advanced tool to set it up under Hoary.

I find it's miles better than using the old primary/extended method, especially when you use XFS instead of ext2/3 so you can extend partitions whilst they're mounted and in use.

I never allocate all my disk space up front these days, I find it's far easier to create LV's for projects on the fly and then either extend them if needed or delete them (and return them to the pool) when not.
