Yeah, we already know the VG's are all named the same. The joys of
default installer settings. (The installers would be better off to name
them something like [hostname]_vg00 instead of just vg00 in the
defaults. Oh well.)
I like the Knoppix idea. I didn't even thing of a live-CD distro at 1AM
last night.
