Re: [Xen-users] Using virt-install on LV

Ahh! virt-install doesn't create the logical volume for you. You need to create it yourself. If this is a "standard" Red Hat install and you didn't fiddle with the volume group name when you did the install then do something like this:

   lvcreate -L 16G -n guest VolGroup00
   virt-install -file /dev/VolGroup00/guest ....

Where "guest" is the name you want to give to the logical volume, "16G" is its size and "VolGroup00" is the name of the volume group you in which you want to create the logical volume.
