Now got more wisdom of that. The fact is true, but a whole disk w/o a
traditional ms-partitation map may also confuse the Kernel while booting: It
sees ghost parts, and then vgscan, tries to find PV on them. STRANGE THINGS
HAPPENS THEN. Happend to me with IDE drives.
But I also got 8xscsi discs w/O partitations, only PV. This works.
Validate the bugs as soon i can receive the latest iso-images.

Hello!
I tested the 9.0rc2. My PC got two harddisks. First disk hda parted into tiny
/boot, 500m / and the rest for lvm.
second disk hdb: 100% PV, joined together to one VG.
0. hda is ok.
1. The installer made a partitation map on hdb, so hdb1 becomes a PV. According
to my information, this is not necessary, we can use the whole disk (hdb) as
PV.
2. Who the heck is adjusting the /etc/fstab at startup?
After inst. and booting the first time, I missed the Icon for cdrom, but found
a mystery hd- icon on the kde- desk, pointing to hdb1 as a mountable
partitation!!!! Also, I can not delete this icon from the desktop.
In the fstab I found an entry, supermount /dev/hdb1 to /mnt/harddisk.
This is not good!!
(I'm braintyping now, will copy&paste this line later)
Deleting this entry/rebooting it is there again.
