Well, I found the issue. Anyone care to help me figure out how to get this resolved?

I mentioned in a previous post that I specifically call out ext3 as the fstype option for /boot. To alleviate further confusion, here is my kickstart file.

If I simply change the url line to be fedora 11 instead of 12, everything works and I can boot.
I decided to look into this a bit further. After installing and getting the following error:
# pygrub /var/lib/xen/images/fedora12.img Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pygrub", line 677, in ? fs = fsimage.open(file, get_fs_offset(file)) IOError: [Errno 95] Operation not supported
I decided to 100% verify that the filesystem was in fact created as ext3.
# losetup /dev/loop0 /var/lib/xen/images/fedora12.img # kpartx -a /dev/loop0 # mount /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /mnt # mount | grep /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /dev/mapper/loop0p1 on /mnt type ext4 (rw)
Wait...what? But I specified ext3 in the kickstart file...
So how do I get anaconda on Fedora 12 to honor the --fstype=ext3 option for part /boot? I tried both:
--fstype ext3
and
--fstype=ext3
with the same results.
Thanks, Charles
Maybe you could format it ext3 using the /dev/mapper/loop0p1 path above and use:
part /boot --noformat --onpart=/dev/partitionGoesHere
