The point is that *none* of the Ananconda install options:
Use all space
Replace Existing Linux System(s)
Shrink current system
use Free space
Create custom layout
will read the existing partitioning of vg_pigeon and present that to you
as a default; they all either suggest a completely new set of defaults, or
in the case of custom, present no defaults at all.
Or to put it another way, missing from that list of install options above,
seems to be:
Keep existing Linux partitioning
You say your original partitioning was custom partitioning, then how do
you expect Anaconda will figure it out without help? The way to do what
you want would be to enter custom partitioning, not delete any of the
existing partitions, specify the appropriate mount points (again only
you know this, no way Anaconda can figure this out), and then continue
with your upgrade as usual.
IIRC, "Replace Existing Linux System(s)" will keep the existing
partitioning. It just replaces the OS--assuming it'll fit.
