Hi All:
Temporary patch for 186439. The idea is not to crash and to give the
user a nice message to change the name of his lv or vg. The message
is thrown before kickstart creates the LogicalVolumeRequestSpec of
VolumeGroupRequestSpec objects.
Another possibility is to change the '-' character to another
acceptable character. If I had to choose one from the alphabet it
would be 't'. No particular reazon, just like the 't' (diff2).
I'll see if fixing it is possible
Regards

Comment From Eric Hopper (eric-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

This is great, except I have LV names already that have -'s in them. Right now
what I have to do is hand-edit the fstab file after installation to make them
show up in the right place. I'd prefer not to have to do that.
(/Snap)
I had misunderstood the exact situation. The mishandling of the LVM
names happens not only with new kickstart names but also can happen with
inside the partition gui with preexisting lvm structures. With this in
mind I propose another patch that informs the user instead of spitting
out an ugly trace back.
The problem is not fixed but anaconda does not die if this situation
presents itself.
