hi, Today I removed partitions from Fedora 7 installation , (kept /home partition from FC7). Again went threw installation I faced no problem this time. Fedora 7 was installed without using LVM. on free space I installed Ubntu7. server for test purpose. No error. Sequence was Freebsd6.2 , Fedora Core 7 then RHEL4. When I tried installation with deselecting many packages (minimal installation) for RHEL5 without using LVM , I faced no problem, rebooted in mid to use LVM+minimal RHEL5 again same error. Repetation with minimal installation+ no LVM could not continued (found same error again). Most likely it was due to partition table. Now current partition table I have is.
