Comments/Problems:
Basic CD Netinst (no boot options).
Configured 2 x 120GB HD's the same.
Configured the whole disk for LVM.
Created 1 VG (rootvg).
Created 3 LV's: boot (50M), root (10G), local (100+GB remainder).
Assigned /boot (ext3), / (xfs), and /local (xfs) to each LV
Base install seemed to go until the kernel package, and then I received a sort of
generic error. Checked Console 3, and it couldn't find some packages (awk was
missing, for example).
This is all from memory, unfortunately. I'll be able to get better output and
diags when I am back at the site with the server.
Hopefully, there will be a way for me to update this information.
Thanks,
Sam Howard
