        <h2 id="lvm">1.2. LVM</h2>

        <p>Read <a href="https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_setup">Raid Setup</a>,
        the only thing you will need outside system is:
        "Patience, Pizza, and your favorite caffeinated beverage.".
        <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Software_RAID_and_LVM">Arch Wiki</a>
        article about Sofware RAID and LVM.</p>

        <p>Basic idea behind RAID is to deal with independent disks
        as an array of drives. Raid 0 uses two or more disks as one,
        with performance gains without fault-tolerance. From raid 1
        to 6 they offer diferent fault tolerance mechanisms.</p>

        <p>LVM or Logic Volume Manager bring one more layer, read
        <a href="http://www.tuxradar.com/content/lvm-made-easy">Lvm made easy</a>.
        Partitions under lvm are easy to be resized, moved and there is
        a tool to help encrypt. There is more freedom to name physical
        disk names exp; production, development, backups...</p>


        <p>Until now "from install" there is only one partition,
        it is good idea to have a system with diferent partitions for each
        propos. If is a "fresh install";</p>
