I agree that on laptops LVM is not all that useful. But on desktops it is as
it allows easy resizing and reallocation.
What I personally want to see our default auto-partitioning do is to create a
separate '/' from /home, such that reinstallations don't wipe out /home.
This actually happens now on larger disks (bigger than 50 GB, IIRC),
as of Fedora 13.
