Description of problem:

Fedora 16 freezes (OS freeze - mouse cursor not moving - not responding) when trying to edit a LVM2 volume on an existent IDE disk (with F15 installed on it) from the "Install To Disk" application booted from F16 Live USB key.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 16 Live KDE, 64 bit x86_64

How reproducible:

Always.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot from USB key with Fedora 16 Live KDE spin, 64 bit x86_64.
2. start "Install to Disk" application and choose "Manual disk Layout"
3. try to edit existing LVM2 volume (to change mount point/format options)
  
Actual results:

When clicking on "Edit" button, system freezes (mouse cursor doesn't move - have to power-off/on)

Expected results:

Normal operation and installation to disk.

Additional info:

I suspected AHCI controler and changed it to IDE mode (in BIOS). Old Fedora 15 still works, but LVM2 volume editing on F16 still freezes.

Following is my machine's smolt report when booted from F15...
