Hi!
I hope this issue is not Fedora specific, so I posting the question
here. I am working on a Fedora 8 kickstart installation that should
use existing LVM logical volume as home partition. However, it keep
failing with an error like this:
Could not allocate requested partitions:
Adding this partition would not leave enough disk space
for already allocated logical volumes in 2008AF_data..
Press 'OK' to exit the installer.
* 2008AF_data is the name of volume group
The kickstart code dealing with partition is quoted below:
clearpart --all --drives=sda
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=128
part pv.1 --size=1536 --grow --ondisk=sda
volgroup 2008A6_work pv.1
logvol swap --fstype swap --name=2008A6_swap --vgname=2008A6_work
--size=512
logvol /var --fstype ext3 --name=2008A6_var --vgname=2008A6_work
--size=512
logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=2008A6_root --vgname=2008A6_work
--size=3904
part pv.2 --noformat --onpart sdb1
volgroup 2008AF_data pv.2 --noformat --useexisting
logvol /home --noformat --useexisting --name=2008AF_home
--vgname=2008AF_data --fstype ext3
* 2008AF_home is the name of logical volume to be reused
I already tried without --useexisting, with estimated size (not
accurate, but I added --grow), without --fstype, etc. same error.
Any idea what's wrong?
Thanks!
Have you looked at generating a sample kickstart using
system-config-kickstart and using something derived from that one?
