If this is true, please tell me why. I have read many places that peoples opinion of Fedora using LVM as the default is "wrong" and that trouble-shooting LVM ( especially for the average desktop user) can be a nightmare. What do you think of Fedoras decision to use LVM as the default, and furthermore not enabling a simple predefined layout if a user decides not to use LVM on installation.
