There is a vm-builder --raw, but I can't get it to work. If I google for other people I find they also can not get it to work. Additionally to make it more painful the documented qemu-img convert also can not target a LV.
My attempts starting with: vmbuilder kvm ubuntu --suite=lucid --part /root/path --raw=/dev/vg-hex00/lv-csc-disk ... End up with a qcow2 image in the ubuntu-kvm subdirectory. The log file at the end shows: 2011-02-16 18:29:37,456 INFO : Creating disk image: "/tmp/tmpxvVjuj" of size: 16385MB ... 2011-02-16 18:30:11,479 INFO : Converting /tmp/tmpxvVjuj to qcow2, format ubuntu-kvm/tmpxvVjuj.qcow2 If/when it is fixed this should be updated: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/CreateGuests Here's a good example of people reporting --raw isn't working: http://serverfault.com/questions/183370/automated-install-of-lucid-guests-on-lucid-kvm-server -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531083 Title: support installing to LVM logical volume -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
