They usually will be. On RH-type systems, this is done by the init script
in your initrd - I've no idea about other flavours, but I suspect it will
be similar.
The only real difficulty I've had here is if you have multiple VGs; the
init script mentions the main VG by name, so additional ones aren't made
active there, and nor is the main one if you change its name. I usually
hand-modify the initrd to cope with this - but that's not a maintainable
situation. zcat and cpio are your friends :-)
