Bug Description
The installer (dapper I think, don't recall if it was ubiquity or not) created my swap on LVM. This really isn't necessary as the kernel merges swaps and may even be undesirable since the kernel will stripe swaps that it knows are on different devices.

Thanks for your comment. This seems to be more of a suggestion than a real bug report. You can put swap spice outside LVM if you want to, however it is to created by default on LVM.
http:// www.ubuntu. com/community/ forums/ might be a good start to discuss changes in default settings and behavior.
