Is offering the menu item really worth the increase in space for the
ramdisk? If there's a deeper thought, then this should be reflected in the
install docs, at least ("If you intend to use LVM, do ...").
Having LVM documented in the NetBSD Guide could go as a nice alternative
for this (Have a chapter "How to install a system with LVM enabled" in
the Guide, and the reference this in the install docs).
imo, if we're going to offer a feature and have any desire for it to be
widely used it should be obviously present in the "normal" way of installing
a system.
You seem to be arguing *against* making the use of lvm user friendly. Am
I interpreting you correctly?
