Public bug reported:
Attempting to prepare Karmic for deployment into our environment and
running into a road block. With jaunty's introduction of LVM we
migrated our partitioning scheme to be fully LVM based except for /boot.
This has worked very well for us. Using the same partitioning scheme in
Karmic fails. Informing me that I have not declared a separate
partition for /boot then halts with the 'No physical volume defined in
volume group' error about the automatic partitioning scheme and sends me
back to the partition scheme selection menu. Of which I never saw in
jaunty. At this point the only thing that works is the selection of
'Use entire disk' and this sets things up as normal partitions.
Selection of either LVM options gives me the same error as I initially
get when kickstart first attempts the partitioning. Leading me to
believe that kickseed is in fact not even reading my custom partitioning
scheme. I can't even select Manual at the selection screen. This does
nothing and just drops me back at the selection screen. Syslog logs no
obvious errors.
