PAVAN NAREGUNDI <pavan.naregundi.com> - 

Anaconda dump log

While installing Fedora11 preview anaconda produced an LVMError, lvcreate failed on JS21 blade.


============================
anaconda 11.5.0.47 exception report
Traceback (most recent call first):
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devicelibs/lvm.py", line 357, in lvcreate
    raise LVMError("lvcreate failed for %s/%s" % (vg_name, lv_name))
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devices.py", line 2034, in create
    lvm.lvcreate(self.vg.name, self._name, self.size)
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/deviceaction.py", line 203, in execute
    self.device.create(intf=intf)
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devicetree.py", line 659, in processActions
    action.execute(intf=self.intf)
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/__init__.py", line 234, in doIt
    self.devicetree.processActions()
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/packages.py", line 117, in turnOnFilesystems
    anaconda.id.storage.doIt()
LVMError: lvcreate failed for vg_js21/lv_root
=============================

Steps to reproduce:

1. Choose to install through vnc
2. Select "Remove all linux partition" at partitioning stage
This should give above shown exception

Machine: JS21
CPU type: Power5  

Attaching the anaconda dump flog generated.

=================================================
Hello Red Hat,

It seems a similar problem was already reported against Fedora rawhide on Red Hat Bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496760

However, it seems this problem has been found in a different situation. Perhaps this bug here might
be useful for you describing another way to reproduce this issue.

Thanks for your support.
