The same definition dies on a blank disk -- with the following backtrace

anaconda 11.5.0.59 exception report
Traceback (most recent call first):
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devices.py", line 2048, in _setSize
    raise ValueError("not enough free space in volume group")
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/partitioning.py", line 1163, in growLVM
    lv.size += grow_amounts[lv.name]
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/partitioning.py", line 197, in doAutoPartition
    growLVM(anaconda.id.storage)
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 205, in moveStep
    rc = stepFunc(self.anaconda)
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 128, in gotoNext
    self.moveStep()
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1339, in nextClicked
    self.anaconda.dispatch.gotoNext()
ValueError: not enough free space in volume group

Is the LV definition invalid for some reason? Is LV expected to work?

cheers,
