Description of problem: Installation uses a custom partition layout. The anaconda installer detects all pre-existing software raid arrays and LVMs, but only dynamically assembles the raid arrays the user chooses to install on. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 6.1 anaconda installer How reproducible: very Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a software raid array and an LVM over it 2. don't use it (i.e. don't assign any path like / or /opt or anything to it) 3. install, wait for last stage (installing grub) Actual results: RuntimeError: get_sysfs_path_by_name: Could not find sysfs path for '/dev/md2' (it is not at '/sys/class/block/md2') Expected results: Successful install Additional info: RuntimeError: get_sysfs_path_by_name: Could not find sysfs path for '/dev/md2' (it is not at '/sys/class/block/md2') </binding><binding fileName="/tmp/anaconda-tb-UqOnrG" name="pythonUnhandledException" type="text">anaconda 13.21.117 exception report Traceback (most recent call first): File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iutil.py", line 805, in get_sysfs_path_by_name "for '%s' (it is not at '%s')" % (dev_node, dev_path)) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/formats/__init__.py", line 416, in majorminor sysfs_path = get_sysfs_path_by_name(device) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/formats/lvmpv.py", line 153, in writeKS f.write("pv.%s" % self.majorminor) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devices.py", line 2751, in writeKS self.format.writeKS(f) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/__init__.py", line 1188, in writeKS device.writeKS(f, preexisting=preexisting, noformat=noformat) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/instdata.py", line 289, in writeKS self.storage.writeKS(f) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/packages.py", line 66, in writeKSConfiguration anaconda.id.writeKS(fn) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 208, in moveStep rc = stepFunc(self.anaconda) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 126, in gotoNext self.moveStep() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1389, in nextClicked self.anaconda.dispatch.gotoNext() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iw/progress_gui.py", line 79, in renderCallback self.intf.icw.nextClicked() File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1410, in handleRenderCallback self.currentWindow.renderCallback()
