Does this work with test2?
Comment 2 welraeds 2004-10-20 09:44:34 UTC 
I have exactly the same problem with FC3T3. I'm installing Fedora as a
vmware. As long as LVM is concerned, install is ok but the system
failed to boot as it cannot find any LVM. 
contact if you need more information or if you need me to perform
further tests.
Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2004-11-01 16:18:03 UTC 
There have been a few more things fixed in this area since test3. 
Could you try one of the RC builds and see if they're better?
Comment 4 Horst H. von Brand 2005-01-20 20:39:53 UTC 
Installed FC3 on several machines with LVM, no problem now.
