10.2.0 change from partitions to LVM + HF2

I ran the image2disk command today on my QA BigIP. It installed the HF2 correctly but it did not reformat the disk to volumes. It ran pretty quickly. Only 2 minutes at most so I was fairly sure it had not reformatted the drive. lvscan returns no output. Maybe the only way to reformat to volumes is when installing a full release (i.e. not a hotfix). I think I need to do some more research on how to make the switch to LVM. Thanks.
