Anaconda logs + output of /proc/partitions and fdisk from inside the VM

FWIW, I also retried with a 10GB image, which ought to be enough for everyone, but I got the same error. Your error is not about insufficient disk space. In Fedora 16 there needs to be a biosboot partition specified, see the information in the yellow box: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart#bootloader Adding part biosboot --fstype=biosboot --size=1 to your kickstart should do the trick. Closing as not a bug. |
Created attachment 527483 [details] the error message Description of problem: When installing F16 Beta VM using a kickstart, partitioning fails suggesting that there's no space. The VM disk image is about 5GB though. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 16.20 How reproducible: always Actual results: error message, see attached screenshot Expected results: install Additional info: The kickstart partitioning looks something like: part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=150 part pv.01 --size=1024 --grow volgroup vg_root pv.01 logvol swap --vgname=vg_root --fstype swap --name=lv_swap --recommended logvol / --vgname=vg_root --size=1024 --grow --name=lv_root I tried making the swap smaller as well to free more space for the root volume, but no good
