I can reproduce this on 5.3 x86_64 when using a fixed size swap partition. Using the following in a kickstart fails: part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 --ondisk=xvda part swap --fstype swap --size=2000 --ondisk=xvda part pv.1 --size=1 --grow --ondisk=xvda volgroup vg --pesize=32768 pv.1 logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=root --vgname=vg --size=1 --grow Either changing the swap partition size to 'recommended' or making it a logical volume allow this to install correctly. ie: part swap --fstype swap --recommended --ondisk=xvda -or- logvol swap --fstype swap --name=swap --vgname=vg --size=2000 (In reply to comment #1) I am not able reproduce with your ks, could you attach /tmp/anaconda.log /tmp/lvmout and /tmp/syslog files if possible? Even better - could you please test this with F11 and let us know if it's still broken for you? We've put a major storage rewrite into the latest version of anaconda and since this is destined to one day be RHEL6, it'll be good to know now whether we still need to work on this problem. Thanks. |
