Calamares crash on trying to setup LVM storage for install on Rolling Gnome #291

Closed Polisson closed 2 years ago

Polisson commented 2 years ago

Environment: Virtual Machine by VM Workstation Player 16 disk controller as NVMe (but SCSI or SATA acts same) disk size 20GiB 100% reproducible

Every time when trying to setup target media as LVM device, the installer closes immediately: after click on New Volume Group the Create Volume Group dialog appears. Adding proper values in it and click OK, the Calamares installer dies.

In Gecko Rolling with Gnome there are three tools for partitioning: Gnome Disk, GParted and Yast Partitioner. The last one is capable to almost finish setup of partitions, but as it acts like submodule for Yast Installer, finishing setup breaks actual live environment (because of remounting partitions).

Thanks for reporting. Unfortunately it looks like Calamares basically has no support for LVM:
