Be prepared for lots of changes... By default it uses LVM2 and sets up
/boot and the swap partitions as actual partitions, then sets / as one
LVM volume.  Add into the mix, Apache 2.2, libvirt & Virtual Server
capabilities, and it's just about a whole new Linux if you're not
accustomed to using them.
