[CentOS] lvm and kickstart issues deploying CentOS5.5

Found the problem there is no support for lvm in the net install iso . Using the full install iso fixed the problem.

Hi.
I'm currently trying to configure a kickstart script to do auto installs. We split up the partitions so that we have control on the mount security like setting no execute  on the tmp portions etc .

I keep hitting the same error :

"Could not stat /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol_root --- No Such file or directory
The device apparently does not exist; did you specify is correctly "

Even after doing a manual install to generate the file lvm configuration I'm getting the same results.
I have also deleted the whole virtual machine and started from scratch.

Any suggestions on how I can resolve this ?
