Thanks MAtthew for your answer but this is exactly what I'm triying to
avoid... :)
I would like to have the equivalent to :
pvcreate /dev/vdb
vgcreate test /dev/vdb
lvcreate -n lv_test -L 10G test
So at the end of the installation I would have a vg over no partition
(not the whole disk but over the disk device).
Thanks
