Description Forgotten User vd_J2WSqeK 2005-08-11 14:44:16 UTC

code 10 beta1
The server has a single harddrive which had several preexisting partitions.
Attempted to create a LVM volume on this HD via the normal install process.

expert Paritioner
/dev/hda     18.6      st320011a     0     2433
/dev/hda1    305.9MB F reister   /boot 0   38
/dev/hda2    8GB LVM                   39   1083
/dev/system  8GB       LVM2 system
/dev/system/rootvol 7.4GB  /
/dev/system/swap     500MB /swap

initially this returned "Unable to find volume group system0" on initial install
reboot.  
At this point I attempted to duplicate the problem and started the install over
with the same LVM volume names.  This failed within the Partitioner  See
attached logs

I have split of the bug concerning the boot failure to bug 104342.  A
workaround is also mentioned there.

The problem with failure to partition is likely a ordering problem
during commit of all partitioning tasks.  This is likely already fixed,
Thomas will know for sure.

Yes, the problem with removing the existing volume group is a ordering problem
im libstorage and will be fixed in beta#2.
