ERROR: Activating raid pdc_fbdiccjg failed:
table: 0 0 linear /dev/mapper/pdc_fbdiccjg
exception: size must be positive
CRITICAL: parted exception: Error:
Could not start device /dev/mapper/pdc_fbdiccjg no such file or
directory
-------------------------------------------
anyway i solved the problem give "nodmraid" option to the kernel option at install time.

hi, i try to upgrade from f9->f10 the graphical installer simple hang (which is imho a bug). when i start it in text mode i've got an error that it can't find /dev/mapper/pdc_fbdiccjg and neither retry nor cancel help. so currently on that machine it's not possible to upgrade. while in the console the error: ------------------------------------------- ERROR: Activating raid pdc_fbdiccjg failed: table: 0 0 linear /dev/mapper/pdc_fbdiccjg exception: size must be positive CRITICAL: parted exception: Error: Could not start device /dev/mapper/pdc_fbdiccjg no such file or directory ------------------------------------------- the machine is an asus p4b533-e motherboard with promise pdc20276 fake raid controller which is disabled in the bios and there is no disk on it, but the kernel still find it. it has 2 pata disk with 2 partition which yield: - md0 /boot - md1 lvm vg (inside lv swap and /) but as anaconda can't find the installed system i'm not able to upgrade (preupgrade failed with the same problem).
