Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2004-12-23 16:37:31 UTC
This is caused by the LVM tools not nicely handling partial LVM.  Some changes
have been made since FC3 that significantly improve this.

To do your install, if you dd over the beginning of each of the partitions
you're using or change your volume group name to something other than
VolGroup00, it should go through fine.
