Below is the output from a df -h command on a finished box which has had a 1TB logical volume created on it and formatted with reiserfs and mounted on /mnt/bigtest and a smaller logical volume using the remainder of the space also formatted with reiserfs and mounted on /mnt/smalltest.

The logical volume is currently limited to 1TB due to limitations in the Linux kernel.
