[ale] Topic ideas for November meeting

[Lightner, Jeff]

If that happened to you I suspect you didn't set them up right.   I've been using LVM for years with very few issues and none that caused data loss.

And lose all your data at the drop of a hat.

I have twice implement LVM while installing a new instance of Mint and Ubuntu and both times within a week, the volumes were corrupt. I had to pretty much start over with normal partitions.  No thanks.
