Additional details:

Not in front of my Xen machines now, but don't you need the full path to the VG
such as 'phy:/dev/vpsvg-006/win2k8,hda,w' ?

It assumes a prefix of /dev. But I tried a full path just to be sure, same result I'm afraid.


Try creating a blank mbr on the lv with  fdisk first.

# fdisk /dev/vpsvg-006/win2k8

Just 'w' write out an empty one then try to run install again.
