Problem description:
  We do a fresh installation FC5("fedora-development tree (aka rawhide),
snapshot May1") on machine plinuxt15. We can see a failed messages when it is
booting up:
Enabling swap space:  swapon: /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01: Invalid argument
                                                                        [FAILED]

If this is a customer issue, please indicate the impact to the customer:


If this is not an installation problem,
       Describe any custom patches installed.

       Provide output from "uname -a", if possible:
Linux plinuxt15.cn.ibm.com 2.6.16-1.2181_FC6 #1 SMP Sun Apr 30 23:03:19 EDT 2006
ppc64 ppc64 ppc64 GNU/Linux

Hardware Environment
    Machine type (p650, x235, SF2, etc.): p650
    Cpu type (Power4, Power5, IA-64, etc.): Power4
    

Is this reproducible?
    If so, how long does it (did it) take to reproduce it?yes
    Describe the steps:
    1. Do fresh installation of FC5
    2. Select disk sda as installation target and accept default disk layout
    3. Finished the installation
    4. reboot it and view the boot messages



Additional information:
    1. After OS boot up, issue "top" and we can see the size of swap is zero:
Mem:   8079772k total,   127908k used,  7951864k free,     9060k buffers
Swap:        0k total,        0k used,        0k free,    46452k cached

I met similar problem on paytonlp1 which has / on swraid1

I am changing the version to 'devel' to properly reflect that this recreates on
rawhide, snapshot May26. 

Comment 2 Phil Knirsch 2006-06-28 05:25:06 UTC
Reassigning to installer, as this is not a bug related to the filesystem component.

Read ya, Phil
