this is my configuration:

DASD 0.0.5d32 (ECKD) - 7.4 GB IBM S390 DASD drive
>     #1     7.4 GB    K  lvm
>           49.2 kB       FREE SPACE
LVM VG rootVG, LV rootLV - 7.4 GB Linux device-mapper (linear)
>     #1     7.4 GB    f  ext4          /

I basically used the whole partition on the DASD as physical volume for
LVM
