Description Neal Gompa 2026-08-26 20:44:39 UTC
The partitions for LVM PVs are marked as "Linux" instead of "LVM member", which apparently causes issues with LVM tooling.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build the Fedora Server AArch64 hardware image
2. Look at partition table for the image
3.
Actual Results:
See LVM PV partitions marked as Linux instead of LVM

Expected Results:
See LVM PV partitions marked as LVM instead of Linux
