Hi

we have often seen this behaviour with lvm and RHEL5 too We try to use fixed sizes during installation and extend the lvm, when the system is running.

I think, that the calculation of lvm size and PE size in the installer is not working well....

I redid it, and made sure that the partition was a multiple of 512Mb. This left 192Mb unused.

The partition was successfully created and the install is on the way.
