Description of problem:
I wanted to completely redo my old partitioning scheme while installing FC4T2. In the previous install, I created an LVM volume group, and I wanted to delete it completely. I couldn't work out how to do that; "Delete" on the partition kept saying I couldn't. Finally I booted with System Rescue CD and deleted everything with qtparted, and was able to install.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to delete an LVM volume group with Disk Druid (and fail)

You need to delete the volume groups before deleting the partitions which make
up the volume groups.
