David, Can you let me know the details of the machine/storage. /dev/mapper/35000c4001a65f8db The short device name leads me to believe a possible unusable lun thats unmasked from a san. Can you verify and get me details on that lun/disk?
its actually a Dell Desktop System Information: Manufacturer: Dell Inc. Product Name: OptiPlex 780 with a local sata hd.
multiple attempts to reproduce this on both similar and different hardware have not succeeded. Analysis points to this being related to dmraid, but that's not determined yet. This should not block ovirt release.

David, can you try to reproduce this error with this (quite frsh) build: http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-node/130/artifact/ovirt-node-image-2.3.0-0.130.fc16.git4400d96.iso

I get 404 for the iso link, could you please verify the path?

The project got renamed a couple of days ago.

As a note: I wasn't able to reproduce this. Looking at the log it seems as if the gpt partition is created, but also the following appears quite often: device-mapper: remove ioctl failed: Device or resource busy Warning: parted was unable to re-read the partition table on /dev/mapper/35000c5001a65f8db (No such file or directory). This means Linux won't know anything about the modifications you made. ... device-mapper: remove ioctl failed: Device or resource busy Warning: parted was unable to re-read the partition table on /dev/mapper/35000c5001a65f8db (Device or resource busy). This means Linux won't know anything about the modifications you made. This could mean that grub just see the freshly labeled disk. Could you give us some informations about the storage device - e.g. drivers used. lsmod, lscpci or a smolt profile.

Can you retry with the latest iso, there was a change in the grub setup that should resolve this error: http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-node-iso/
Now installation passed successfully (when using the iso from: http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-node-iso/)
Awesome, thanks!
