Evms is the best all-in-one tool for disk management I've found.
However, Debian-Installer doesn't support it, and you need to
patch the kernel to be able to use evms with non-evms partitions
on the same disk. I don't think initrd-tools supports it either,
so using evms for the root partition is also tricky. If the
default kernel image included the bd-claim patch, things would be
a lot easier.
