and can be tailored using a plug-in model to individual needs of various volume man-
agement systems.
EVMS is compatible with existing memory and volume management systems, like
DOS, Linux LVM, GPT (GUID partition table), IBM System z, Macintosh, and BSD
partitions. More information is provided at http://evms.sourceforge.net/.

With the expert partitioner, shown in
Figure 8.6, "The YaST Partitioner"

manually modify the partitioning of one or several hard disks. Partitions can be added,
deleted, resized, and edited. Also access the soft RAID, EVMS, and LVM configuration
from this YaST module.
