Attached traceback automatically from anaconda.
This happened when attempting to replace a lvm formatted system with: part / --onpart=sda2 --fstype=ext4 part /boot --onpart=sda1 --fstype=ext4 ks is: install url --url=http://download.fedora.devel.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/13/x86_64/os/ lang en_US.UTF-8 keyboard us network --device eth0 --bootproto dhcp firewall --service=ssh authconfig --enableshadow --passalgo=sha512 --enablefingerprint selinux --enforcing timezone --utc America/New_York bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=sda --append="rhgb quiet" repo --name=updates-testing --mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-testing-f$releasever&arch=$basearch #clearpart --all part / --onpart=sda2 --fstype=ext4 part /boot --onpart=sda1 --fstype=ext4 %packages --ignoremissing ConsoleKit-devel <a bunch of other stuff> We aren't scheduling format destroy actions for the preexisting formats when handling onpart. We need to be doing a recursive destroy starting with those formats, eg: lvmpv->lvmvg->lvmlv(s) Bill, this should be fixed in current builds (inc. TC1), as per the 'fixed in' field. Can you please test and confirm? Thanks. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers Ping? I have not had time to test this. So, to test this correctly, all you need to do is do a kickstart install using --onpart to ask the installer to convert a partition currently occupied by an LVM into a raw ext4 partition, right? -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers Correct. okay, I should be able to test this later today. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers Tested this with 0505 boot.iso. Seems to work. I first did an install with default partitioning - so a swap partition and an LVM with / and /boot. Then I replaced it with this ks: http://www.happyassassin.net/extras/test.ks . It uses the original /boot partition as swap, and replaces the LVM with an ext4 / partition. It got happily through partitioning stage and started installing packages, whereupon I stopped it because I don't have all night. :) Closing this since the update is already pushed to stable. |
