But when I try to install CentOS 5.1 via kickstart, anaconda

successfully installed CentOS 5.X via kickstart and preserved at
least one partition on a logical volume, and if so, could you please
share your kickstart file?
Alfred,
This worked fine for me on a 4.6 kickstart I did recently. I can't
remember whether I tried it on 5.x or not, sorry.
bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=sda
part /boot --onpart=sda1 --fstype=ext3
part swap --onpart=sda2 --fstype=swap
volgroup vg --useexisting
logvol / --useexisting --name=root --vgname=vg --fstype=ext3
Because the volgroup already exists you don't need to define a PV for
it.
Hope this helps, although it doesn't look much different to your config!
Regards,
Tom
