(Get the code!)
The given layout actually does not make much sense.
I have just installed a Xubuntu machine with 64 GB RAM and 2TB SSD.
The LVM swap partition created by ubiquity is 1,91 GB large, and thus merely useless and cannot be used to store data for hibernation or to free a significant part of the RAM, and cannot be increased since ubuiquity used all the 2TB LVM.
The root partition, on the other hand, occupies 1.82 TiB, and thus all available ssd space.
What's the point in using LVM here?
It would have been much better to either ask and occupy e.g. just 300MB of the available ssd space, or to not use LVM at all.
It ssems as if that had been invented about 10 years ago and never been reviewed since.
