From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050405 Firefox/1.0 (Ubuntu package 1.0.2) Description of problem: When running the Anaconda Fedora Core 4 installation, either Graphical or Text, it crashes out as soon as it tries to partition the drive. But, if I then re-run the installation, it works fine. It is removing previous Linux partitions and replacing them with LVM. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start the Fedora Core Install process 2. Follow the install process (Remove All partions, Personal Software selection) 3. Start the actual Anaconda installation process Actual Results: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/anaconda, line 1160, in ? intf.rum(id, dispatch) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 496, in run dispatch.gotoNext() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 174 in gotoNext self.moveStep() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 242, in moveStep rc = apply(func, self.bindArgs(args)) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/packages.py", line 582 in turnOnFilesystems thefsset.createLogicalVolumes(instPath) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/fsset.py", line 1472, in createLogicalVolumes entry.device.setupDevice(chroot) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/fsset.py", line 2066, in setupDevice raise SystemError, "pvcreate failed for %s" % (volume,) System Error: pvcreate failed for <fsset.PartitionDevice instance at 0xb7a1d9ec> Expected Results: It should format the drives, install GRUB and install Fedora Core Additional info: Sorry if the error is not exactly correct but I had to re-type it all out again.
