... but you forgot to put in the part when where you mark those old MS Windows partitions as type 8e (LVM), run pvcreate and vgextend and make the space available to Linux at your leisure.

(BTW: I like LVM! Now that support is maturing and I forced myself to learn it it's nice to keep a few gigs of space unallocated and ready to toss into filesystem on a moment's notice. Online resizing/growing will make that EVEN BETTER).
