Comment 2 James Laska 2009-03-10 10:02:25 EDT

= Steps to reproduce =

 1) Initiate a KVM install

# virt-install -n vguest1 -r 1024 --vcpus 2 --os-variant fedora10 -b br0 -l http://gromit.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/x86_64/os -f /dev/VolGroup00/vguest1-disk0  --arch x86_64 --vnc -x "console=ttyS0"

 2) Attach a second disk device (before loader has started)

# virsh attach-disk vguest1 /dev/VolGroup00/vguest1-disk1 vdb

 3) Proceed to stage#2

Comment 3 James Laska 2009-03-10 10:15:15 EDT

Same result if you boot with 2 disks.  The first being one that's already been formatted, the second is a new disk never seen by linux.

# virt-install -n vguest1 -r 1024 --vcpus 2 --os-variant fedora10 -b br0 \
 -l http://gromit.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/x86_64/os \
 -f /dev/VolGroup00/vguest1-disk0 \
 -f /dev/VolGroup00/vguest1-disk1 \
  --arch x86_64 --vnc -x "console=ttyS0"

Comment 4 David Lehman 2009-03-10 11:12:09 EDT

Should be fixed in anaconda-11.5.0.26. Thanks for the bug report.
