Storage Config on a new install
by merc718 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5E4C1)
Just installed ubuntu Server on 20.04 - ssd is 512gb. When i ssh into the system, my disk usage is 5.3 % of 195gb? i lsblk my hd and got:
Code:nvme0n1 259:0 0 476.9G 0 disk
nvme0n1p1 259:1 0 512M 0 part /boot/efi
nvme0n1p2 259:2 0 1G 0 part /boot
nvme0n1p3 259:3 0 475.4G 0 part
ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv 253:0 0 200G 0 lvm /
nvme1n1 259:4 0 953.9G 0 diskot seems like i should have paid more attention to the install but there seems to be a lvm volumn of 200gb. i google what lvm is and dont exactly understand what it does. it the most simplest terms, can someone explain? i have one disk for the OS and a separate one(1tb) for storage.
