I plan to use LVM. My Ubuntu is currently non-LVM based.

I wonder if I can do that without resintalling or if I can:

  • resize current partition (call it part Old)
  • create new partition (call it part LVM)
  • clone part OLD files to part LVM files
  • delete part old

And finally have the same Ubuntu LVM-based.

Is this naive vision possible ? If not, which is the normal way ?

Thanks.

Yes, you can. You can even put your swap space and /boot files on the LVM so you will have two logical volumes: one for the swap space and the other for /.
