Linux Partition

I have installed Red hat Linux 5.11 with all the necessary patches needed but I have one questions
The partitions and disk space is not right e.g when using df –k
I get this
Code:
Filesystem                                                                          1K-Blocks                             Used                                                     Available                Use               Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00                      617377040                           3332196                                                582177964                1%                          /
/dev/sda1                                                                           101086                                  17808                                                    78059                    19%                        /boot
Tmpfs                                                                                   8148028                                0                                                              8148028                0%                          /dev/shm

I want to create other partitions with disk space such as
/var 160000MB
/tmp 4000MB
/opt 40000 - 200000MB
/usr 4000 MB
Now I know I can use the fdisk command but also there is a LVM (which I have never used before )

Having looked at previous disk partition on other Red Hat Servers
There is something like this and also would like something similar

/dev/mapper/vg-sys-optvol 43 GB

dev/mapper/vg-sys-varvol 2GB

dev/mapper/vg-sys-tmpvol 2GB

dev/mapper/vg-sys-varlogvol 2GB

Please can you advise and assist on this
