Thanks, I'll leave the LVM alone.
Where would I stop the automagical mounting of the disk ...
This depends on who or what is automounting your disk.
AFAIK there are several possibilities (I use none, so take my
knowledge with two fists of salt). Perhaps your system log tells
you what is doing the automounting.
and mount it on a directory at boot ?
Wait: this is orthogonal to the above. Usually, whatever you want
mounted at boot is in /etc/fstab (or, perhaps, in some systemd
unit files, although I'm more-than-hazy on this one). But this
wouldn't make much sense with removable media, I guess.
But you can choose to do none of the above (in my case, I always
mount removable media explicitly.
