+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1027947 +++ Description of problem: I had old LVM partition scheme on my disk. I have resized old root partition to some big number (130 GB on my 20 GB disk), accepted changes (ran without problem), and then tried to resize it back to old value and this showed up. Version-Release number of selected component: anaconda-20.25.6-1 The following was filed automatically by anaconda: anaconda 20.25.6-1 exception report Traceback (most recent call first): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blivet/deviceaction.py", line 581, in __init__ raise ValueError("new size same as old size") File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blivet/__init__.py", line 1250, in resizeDevice self.devicetree.registerAction(action_class(device, new_size)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/custom.py", line 1454, in _save_right_side self.__storage.resizeDevice(device, size) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/custom.py", line 2802, in on_apply_clicked self._save_right_side(self._current_selector) ValueError: new size same as old size Additional info: cmdline: /usr/bin/python /sbin/anaconda cmdline_file: initrd=initrd.img inst.stage2=hd:LABEL=Fedora\x2020-Beta\x20i386 rd.live.check quiet BOOT_IMAGE=vmlinuz executable: /sbin/anaconda hashmarkername: anaconda kernel: 3.11.6-301.fc20.i686 product: Fedora release: Cannot get release name. type: anaconda version: 20-Beta Potential duplicate: bug 868698 --- Additional comment from Jan Sedlák on 2013-11-07 08:54:20 EST --- Steps to reproduce: 1. Install Fedora using default LVM partition scheme. 2. Boot F20 anaconda installer. 3. Choose custom partitioning. 4. Resize existing root partition to bigger size than your disk have (130 GB) and click "update settings". It shows that root will have 130 GB. 5. Resize your root partition back to old size.
*** Bug 918454 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Perhaps I should not have closed 918454 as a duplicate of this bug. This one uses LVM and that one uses a disk partition.
Reproduced with anaconda-19.31.42-1.el7, verified with anaconda-19.31.56-1.el7. Anaconda doesn't allow LV sizes bigger than VG size. Moving to VERIFIED.
