Description Mark J Strawcutter 2011-10-04 17:57:02 UTC
Description of problem:

Interactive kickstart install with ks.cfg containing the following:

clearpart --drives=sda --all
ignoredisk --drive=sdb
part /boot --ondisk=sda --fstype=ext4 --size=500
part pv.008002 --ondisk=sda --grow --size=1
volgroup vg_xyzzy --pesize=4096 pv.008002
logvol / --fstype=ext4 --name=lv_root --vgname=vg_xyzzy --grow --size=1024
logvol swap --name=lv_swap --vgname=vg_xyzzy --recommended

ignores those commands and creates default logical volumes lv_root, lv_home and lv_swap and uses host name in vgname instead of specified xyzzy

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

perform interactive kickstart install with ks.cfg containing above commands

Steps to Reproduce:
1. perform interactive kickstart install with ks.cfg containing above commands
2. select option to review disk part/vol setup during install
