Hey,
Can anyone tell me why option 1 works and option 2 fails ?
What are you installing?
It fails on trying to format my logical volume, because the mount point
does not exist (/dev/volgroup/logvol)
It seems that with option 2, the partitions are created and LVM is setup
correctly. However the volgroup / logvolume was not made active, so my
/dev/volgroup/logvol did not exist.
Running `lvm lvchange -a -y pathname` from with in the shell after
anaconda failed made the volgroup / logvol active. Which would allow the
format command to complete.
Option 1:
zerombr yes
In CentOS5, Anaconda complains (but continues) with that, and so my
question.
clearpart --all --initlabel
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100
part pv.os --size=10000 --grow --maxsize=10000 --asprimary
volgroup os_volgroup01 pv.os
logvol swap --fstype swap --name=os_swap_logvol --vgname=os_volgroup01
--recommended
logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=os_root --vgname=os_volgroup01 --size=1024
--grow
Option 2:
zerombr yes
clearpart --all --initlabel
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100
part swap --size=1000
part pv.os --size=10000 --grow --maxsize=10000 --asprimary
volgroup os_volgroup01 pv.os
logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=os_root --vgname=os_volgroup01 --size=1024
--grow
I'll let you compare, this works with CentOS5:
zerombr
part /boot --fstype "ext3" --size=100 --ondisk=hda
part pv.6 --size=0 --grow --ondisk=hda
volgroup VolGroup00 pv.6
logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=LogVol00 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=1024
--grow
logvol swap --fstype swap --name=LogVol01 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=512
This setup works on Fedor9 (alpha)
# The following is the partition information you requested
# Note that any partitions you deleted are not expressed
# here so unless you clear all partitions first, this is
# not guaranteed to work
clearpart --linux --drives=sda
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=200 --ondisk=sda
part pv.3 --size=0 --grow --ondisk=sda
volgroup VolGroup00 --pesize=32768 pv.3
logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=LogVol00 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=1024
--grow
logvol swap --fstype swap --name=LogVol01 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=256
--grow --maxsize=512
