Hi, I'm trying to do an install of RHEL5.1 (i386), with the help of cobbler. All in a VMware at the moment. The partitioning section looks like this: part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=150 --ondisk=sda --asprimary part swap --fstype swap --size=4096 --ondisk=sda --asprimary part pv.01 --size=2048 --ondisk=sda volgroup rootvol pv.01 --pesize=32768 logvol / --vgname=rootvol --size=1024 --name=root --grow --fstype=ext3 part pv.02 --size=4096 --ondisk=sda volgroup usrvol pv.02 --pesize=32768 logvol /usr --vgname=usrvol --size=1024 --name=usr --grow --fstype=ext3 part pv.03 --size=2048 --grow --ondisk=sda volgroup varvol pv.03 --pesize=32768 logvol /var --vgname=varvol --size=1024 --name=var --grow --fstype=ext3 part pv.04 --size=4096 --ondisk=sda volgroup varlogvol pv.04 --pesize=32768 logvol /var/log --vgname=varlogvol --size=1024 --name=varlog --grow --fstype=ext3 But the installer halts with the "Big Problem, I can only reboot - OK?" screen. The problem seems to be that the volumegroups are not active (I can activate them via vgscan and vgchange -ay on the 2nd terminal, I see on the 3rd that anaconda can't find them in /dev)). I tried a "pre"-scripts, but I think anaconda enters into some kind of chroot and the device-files are not there anymore, when it wants to format the devices... Has anyone had this problem? I couldn't find anything in the archives.
