Mainly at home, however, i do keep a virtual machine running at work with it installed. Some things I just prefer to do using Fedora. I find it much more flexible and I just like the software better in a lot of cases.
For a 500gb disk, is there any reason to not accept this setup?
Should /home be on a separate VG?
What if we add another 1TB disk, that should be on a separate VG?
If you do keep the default partition and want to use KVM, you will have to store the virtual disks in /home. Or during install, you remove /home and give the rest back to /.
Why? On my desktop I keep my vdisk on a separate drive mounted as /kvm_store.
It makes sense to resize or choose a larger partition when you don't have another drive available.
The whole point of LVM is to make everything easy to change latter should you need to.
I just face palmed reading that first paragraph: New features
LVM RAID support
One of the biggest features of blivet-gui 2.0 is support of LVM RAID. When adding a new LV, you can now choose RAID level for it. LVM supports the same RAID types mdraid does but you can choose different level for every logical volume so it's more flexible than using LVM on top of an mdraid.
LVM still uses md raid, just like you would normally.
That said, people like their gui for all the things, why not have yet another tool to manage everything.
I just did a side-by-side install comparison. Here are the results. The details are in the screenshots: (no Cockpit in minimal install, twice as many packages in basic)
