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.

That last sentence was the key. I removed the line "part pv.2 -- noformat --onpart sda2" and did not make any other changes and now the "upgrade" is working fine. For future reference, here is what the relevant section of my kickstart file looked like:

  bootloader --location=mbr --append="rhgb quiet"
  part /boot --fstype ext3 --onpart sda1
  volgroup VolGroup00 --useexisting
logvol swap --useexisting --fstype swap --name=LogVol00 -- vgname=VolGroup00 logvol / --useexisting --fstype ext3 --name=LogVol01 -- vgname=VolGroup00

Thanks for the help,
Alfred
