Installers,

Accompanied by a less than knowledgeable owner.

Fedora 30. Tomorrow night.

Problem preview:

Installing Fedora 30 Workstation on my computer, I get the following:

[ OK ] Started Show Plymouth Boot Screen.

. . .

[ OK ] Started Monitoring of LVM2ë dmeventd or progress polling.

[Failed] Failed to start LVM2 PV scan on device 8:18.

See 'systemctl statuslvm2-pvscan at 8:18.service' for details.

[Failed] Failed to start LVM2 PV on device 259:3.

See 'systemctl statuslvm2-pvscan at 259:3.service' for details.

[Failed] Failed to start LVM2 PV on device 259:2.

See 'systemctl statuslvm2-pvscan at 259:2.service' for details.

[Failed] Failed to start LVM2 PV on device 8:3.

See 'systemctl statuslvm2-pvscan at 8:3.service' for details.

[ OK ] Started udev Wait for Complete Device Initialization.

[ OK ] from here on

...............................................................

This system previously ran Fedora 30. I swapped out 2 spin drives for
a new spin drive and an SSD because one of the old drives developed a
bad sector. A pair of M.2's are also in the system. All four old
components were previously operating under Fedora 30. The only way I
can get the system to install and boot now is to install only on the
spin drive, leaving the M.2's and the SSD unutilized.

I think I need also to get the SSD recognized as sda, but that is the least of my problems presently.

Regards,
Bob
