Thanks MAtthew for your answer but this is exactly what I'm triying to
avoid... :)
I would like to have the equivalent to :
pvcreate /dev/vdb
vgcreate test /dev/vdb
lvcreate -n lv_test -L 10G test
So at the end of the installation I would have a vg over no partition
(not the whole disk but over the disk device).
Thanks

Subject: Crete Volgroup from anaconda ks using the whole disk
Hi all,
Has someone managed to create a volume group from a kickstart that uses
the whole disk and not a partition ?
I tried to create the pv, vg and lv from a pre script and then use the
--useexisting flag for logvol and anaconda complains about the vg is not
created and I guess is because I didn't use the volgroup command in the
partitioning section.
If I use the volgroup tag with --useexisting in the partitioning section
I'm forced to use a list of partitions that is what I'm triying to
avoid....
So any suggestions?
Thanks
