Im installing CentOS5.1 on an Acer Aspire 5021 laptop with AMD Turion64 and ATI X700 128MB gfx card.
I want to partition my 80MB ATA disk as LVM, so I:
Choose custom partition. delete all existing partitions. add one LVM vg partition taking up entire disk. I do not change any default options. I then click the LVM button to add my logical volumes as follows:
5GB / 8GB /home 5GB /tmp 4GB /var 1GB swap
all are ext3 partitions.
I exit the LVM dialogue and click Next to continue with the partitioning, and... it all crashes. I get a debug error box with lots of unintelligible errors that I am completely unfamiliar with. I click OK on the error dialogue and the installation freezes and I can only power off with the button. I will probably look for this on bug tracker and log a bug report if I don't find a similar case, but I wanted to mail the list first (because it's easier) and ask if anyone knows of the issue and how to get around it?
thanks, andrew
