I had a somewhat similar situation today as well. My partition layout would work for RHEL 4u5 but when I tried on 5.1 it failed. What seems to have fixed my problem was moving the swap partition out of the vg group I was using and setup a regular linux partition for it. I wonder if that's what did it for you as well, although of course that would explain why.
