Description Lamont Peterson 2011-05-04 20:51:52 UTC
Description of problem:
Unhandled exception error *after* reporting it to user and telling me that I can change the bad setting.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 6.0 - anaconda 13.21.82

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Create VG with something like 20GB.
2.  Create one (or more) LVs to use up, say, 15GB.
3.  try to create another LV, setting the size to 10240 MB.
4.  Dialog pops up, choose to change your setting.
  
Actual results:
Unhandled exception error pops up; no longer possible to continue install.

Expected results:
Should let the user continue to edit, but not let them commit to disk until the combined sizes fit.

Additional info:
I've seen this on bare metal and under VirtualBox 4.0.3 on Windows 7 (64 bit).
Only been using AMD64 DVD for RHEL 6.0.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-05-05 06:02:10 UTC
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2011-06-13 20:04:58 UTC
Development Management has reviewed and declined this request.  You may appeal
this decision by reopening this request.
