Sure- look up software RAID, most distributions of Linux now have a kernel
that knows about "md" RAID devices. It actually isnt a "distributed"
filesystem, that is a different animal, you are really talking about RAID
(even mirrored disks are RAID... called RAID-1).
First, you set up your "md" device, which in its simplest form is
mirroring. One md device encompasses 2 disk partitions (hopefully on
different physical drives :-) then you set up your LVM over the md device.
There you go!
I found some good info about how to do this. Google for md raid lvm and
you should turn up something, or try http://www.tldp.org for howtos.
Cheers,
