Description Michael Young 2011-04-20 15:40:50 UTC 
I am trying to do an additional install onto an existing system with LVM space available. Unfortunately this fails with the complaint that I can't have a bootable LVM partition. That is fair enough, but it still won't work when I set
bootloader --location=none
in the kickstart file, telling it that I don't want it to install a boot loader at all. Since I am telling it not to install a boot loader it shouldn't worry about bootable LVM partitions because I am not telling it to create one.

Please attach /tmp/anaconda.log, /tmp/syslog, and /tmp/stprage.log to this bug report.  Thanks.

Give this update a try, pass 'updates=http://bcl.fedorapeople.org/updates/698312.img' on the kernel command line.

I did finally get a chance to try it, and it gets past the point it was failing at (though I didn't have enough time to let it complete the installation).
