Description of problem: installing rawhide of 2007-12-20, I had /usr on an LVM lv. I selected to reduce the size of the lv, and selected to format the "partition". Anaconda spent way too much time resizing the lv prior to formatting the newly resized filesystem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda 11.4.0.11 How reproducible: unknown Steps to Reproduce: 1. install rawhide 2. resize an existing logical volume 3. also select to format the filesystem Actual results: The horizontal "bouncer" ate large portions of the CPU time, while anaconda was fscking the filesystem prior to resizing. And all this wasted effort was done for a filesystem that was immediately reformatted. Expected results: I'd check the format flag prior to doing the resize and skip the fsck if the result is going to be reformatted. Additional info:
Yeah, this is on my todo list, just haven't gotten there yet. Thanks for filing so I don't forget about it :)
Fixed in git
