| Summary | 0003927: PXE initrd unable to activate LVM | |||||||||||
| Description |
I'm running into an issue with the PXE initrd not activating the LVM that is in the kickstart profile. If I change the kickstart profile to use raw partitions then the image has no problems installing. The error on the screen is "An error occured trying to format myvg/rootvol..." When I flip to the command line shell /dev/myvg/rootvol is not activated and I have to run lvm.static lvchange -a y /dev/myvg/rootvol by hand then I can run the mke2fs -b 4096 -j /dev/myvg/rootvol. |

Works for me when installing x86_64 CentOS 5.4 via PXE & kickstart It does seem to get stuck for ages on "installing" with no progress showing up on screen(5+minutes). I thought it had failed at first and started again but it did it a second time so I went made coffee and come back and it was then updating as each package was being installed. ks=http://scrappy.lunix.lan/ks/centos-5.4_x86_64-kvm.ks [^] initrd=images/centos/x86_64/5.4/initrd.img ramdisk_size=100000 ksdevice=eth0 ip=dhcp url --url http://scrappy.lunix.lan/os/centos/5.4/x86_64 [^] ( i copied initrd & vmlinuz from the images/pxeboot directory on the dvd. ) --centos-5.4_x86_64-kvm.ks-- bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=sda clearpart --all part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=150 --asprimary part swap --size=4096 part pv.01 --size=939008 volgroup vg_root pv.01 logvol / --vgname=vg_root --fstype ext3 --size=8192 --name=lv_root logvol /var --vgname=vg_root --fstype ext3 --size=20480 --name=lv_var logvol /tmp --vgname=vg_root --fstype ext3 --size=2048 --name=lv_tmp logvol /virt --vgname=vg_root --fstype ext3 --size=409600 --name=lv_virt logvol /home --vgname=vg_root --fstype ext3 --size=1024 --grow --name=lv_home --centos-5.4_x86_64-kvm.ks-- |
