Will it build a bare root LV on a new VG? I tested like you said. I removed --useexisting from logvol root, but then it complains about home etc.. So I removed --usexisting and --noformat from all logvol definitions and it actually began installing, but failed with error: logical volume "swap" already exists in volume group "rhel_rhellv01" With --useexisting the LVs are not found and it does not even begin the installation. Without --useexisting it begins installation but can't create the LVs because they already exist. This does not surprise me. And when I look on the console the LVs are not activated, but I can do vgchange -ay. However, the old /boot is destroyed at that point and the old system won't boot anymore and I have to install/repair again. I'm not sure how to proceed. Maybe I try Fedora to see if it only fails with RHEL 8 (as I said it does work with RHEL 7) Best Regards, Markus _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
