From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: Disk druid displays logical volume sizes as one tenth of their actual size. E.g., a LV with 8192MiB (2048 extends x 4MiB/extend) is displayed as 819.2 MiB. Used space reflects this 1/10 ratio, but the total space is correct, so the free space ends up much larger than real. I wonder what happens if I actually ask it to create a huge LV taking up all of the space it claims to be free. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-10.0.1-2.src.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Boot the installer on a box with LVM1 volumes 2.Proceed to disk druid Actual Results: Pre-existing partitions are shown as taking up 1/10 of their actual size. Expected Results: Size should be correct. Additional info:
Just noticed that the number displayed as the size of the volume group is given in KiB, even though it column says Size (MB). It's nonsensical like this: LVM Volume Groups all ... 119201792 tettnang ext 819.2 correct would have ben all ... 116408 tettnang ext 8192 Total space is displayed in the correct units in the Edit LVM Volume Group window, but LV size is still off by a factor of 10. Ditto in the Edit Logical Volume window.
Can you attach the /tmp/anaconda.log?

Fixed in CVS

Confirmed, at least in text mode. I couldn't get to a graphical install with the latest test tree. Thanks!
