Dave,

Looks good to me - thanks! I wasn't sure how to word it but I think your
changes make it clear.

The change to add -f was motivated by the fact that users found the man
page confusing as it didn't forbid -f with -l and people found this
ambiguous as LVM1 allowed that - I think your changes clear this up.

Regards,
Bryn.
