The only snag is that the kernel needs to know WTF a LVM volume is to mount
root :) - generally that means having LVM modules in your initrd, or building
it into the kernel.
Linux LVM (plus reiserfs) is a *big* plus in my book, the flexibility of not
having to know in advance how big /home will ever need to be is much appreciated :)
