The bug report may well prove that I don't know as much as I thought I did, but is anyone else seeing rawhide (f7test) failures with non-default disk layouts? Bugzilla 232862 details much of my problem, but I present a summary here. My testbed machine that it is failing on is a MSI motherboard, VIA chipset, and a Celeron @600MHz (an older machine, yes). I get consistent LVM activation failures during the installation no matter what I try to do with the disk layouts. I seem to be able to get an installation process going when I accept the "default" layout (and ssometimes even then!) I thought for a while (briefly) that I had found a syntax error in anaconda's call to vgchange, but that is obviously not the problem. There is the change over from the old ATA method to the new, and this started happening at that transition. However, I have wiped the partition table/MBR and started from scratch a couple of times, still getting the errors. I have even tride hand configuring with no LVM partitions/volumes at all and still get vgchange failures. I've done memtest86+, run some heavy math stuff and otherwise verified that under FC6 (with updates) that the hardware is still basically good, but this machine just does not like FC7 series installs. -- G.Wolfe Woodbury
