Attached traceback automatically from anaconda.
This error is triggered by creating logical volumes which together add up to more space than the available space in the volume group. This is allowed by the partition configuration system, but when the table is written to disk there is the error above. My intention was to re-use an old volume group for this installation. The Group had 2 logical volumes, one of about 230GB and one of just 1GB (for swap). However, I'd prefer to rejig this for the new installation so wanted to break the bigger volume down into 2 volumes of about 50GB and leave the rest free. Without deleting and adding, the only way to do this is to resize the big partition down to 50GB, add a new volume of 50GB, mark them both to be formatted and then assign them mount points (of / and /home in my case). However, to format the resized partition the interface requires us to untick the resize box to then tick the format box (which is greyed out if resize is still ticked). This results in the partition being un-resized again and now I have a volume group of about 231GB with volumes of 230GB, 1GB and 50GB. This is clearly not going to work. So, I think the bug is actually that the configurator allows the user to untick the resize box when doing so creates too much space for the volume group to cope with. My workaround (and probably the correct way to do this) is to just delete the existing large volume and create 2 new ones. This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
