Hi,

I’ve just finished installing 2 servers (via “standard” Kickstart files) using the RHEL5.4 install DVD. I noticed after boot that / was almost 100% full. When I resized it, I noticed that it was 30MB smaller than I specified in the kickstart. I confirmed this on both servers, and discoverd another LV that was 12MB smaller than specified.

LVM allocates space in physical extents (by default 32 megabytes, but it can be pretty much any power of two). This can cause discrepancies in your allocations unless they are exact multiples of the size of the extents.
