So I would like someone to verify that the anaconda install
routine using the disk druid graphic partitioner can create
LVM items on the extended logical partitions
Yes, it can do that. This is my partition layout, created in the
Anaconda installer:
fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 5222 41945683+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2 5223 5235 104422+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 5236 8790 28555537+ 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sda4 8791 19457 85682677+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 8791 12345 28555506 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sda6 12346 15901 28563538+ 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sda7 15902 17118 9775521 83 Linux
Agreed. It can do it. However, system-config-lvm fails with:
# system-config-lvm
Traceback (most recent call last):

I am not a programmer, but I read this that the gui is not happy with
extended partitions.
