Thanks for the reply, Richard. The disk did had a previous partition layout, although it was not part of a RAID array. I checked with parted and gdisk, but neither complained about the partition table, and both agreed on this layout: Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 1049kB 211MB 210MB fat16 boot 2 211MB 735MB 524MB ext4 3 735MB 1000GB 999GB lvm When booting the Live CD, it actually activates the swap partition that anaconda created in the LVM partition. It is also possible to manually mount the different partitions in the disk, so I guess the partition table is healthy. regards, /Josep -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
