Its different, its new, and it makes me think about ways that I havent
ever before... therefore its bad. The only people I have heard LVM
touted as "THE" solution.. are people who don't like LVM. If there are
people who tout it as "THE" solution for everything should be
ignored.. getting them in your gander is a waste of energy and time.
I'm having difficulty determining if there is any sarcasm here. I
don't understand your last sentence above at all. What are you
saying?
If you don't like new tricks, then you shouldn't be using Fedora.
Fedora is all about bleeding edge, pushing the envelope, trying new
technologies.
All the tools to rescue a system are there on the rescue disk, either
with or without LVM. Is there a lack of documentation about LVM on
the rescue disk? Perhaps. Isn't the same true about fdisk, parted,
fsck, etc?
You still have the ability to install a system without LVM.
