After creating this ticket, I found a similar issue (though with LVM1): Bug 125405. According to that bug, this issue may not be resolved for some time yet. There are also some RHEL docs that RECOMMEND using dashes in volume names--if this issue is not going away, would it be possible to update the documentation to recommend against using dashes in volume names? See this link for one example of what I'm referring to: http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Installation_Guide/ch28s04s04.html . My partition options from ks.cfg: clearpart --linux --initlabel part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 --asprimary part pv.1 --size=100 --grow --asprimary volgroup vg1 pv.1 logvol swap --fstype swap --name=lv-swap --vgname=vg1 --size=1024 logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=lv-root --vgname=vg1 --size=6144 logvol /home --fstype ext3 --name=lv-home --vgname=vg1 --size=4096 logvol /tmp --fstype ext3 --name=lv-tmp --vgname=vg1 --size=1024 logvol /var --fstype ext3 --name=lv-var --vgname=vg1 --size=1024 Huh? That documentation refers to creating encrypted partitions. It has nothing to do with LVM. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 125405 *** Sorry, I should have clarified that better... LUKS, as I understand it, uses the same subsystem as LVM (http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Installation_Guide/ch28s02.html). In my case, I'm using LUKS over LVM. What I was asserting is that IF this is a problem with LVM (or device-mapper or whatever), it may also affect LUKS or other software that uses the same subsystems. That is why I pointed out that LUKS page--it recommends using dashes in its device names. |
