Mike, 

I'm pretty sure this is a 'user error'.  Right now, I think I skipped a step or 
two in the 'Cookbook', where you define a partition on the disk and tell it 'Do 
not mount, do not format'.  

Don't know how I did that, and I'll know for sure if that's the problem, just 
as soon as I finish my coffee.

I vaguely remember seeing a 4010 return code and vaguely associate it with
trying to make a physical volume (PV) out of a disk with a PV signature
already on it.  That's probably why you ran into this the second time, but
not the first.

Did you reformat the disks at the "DASD Management" screen?  I'm guessing
not.  Try the install again making sure you activate and format all disks
that will need to become PVs.  Also, in the "Add Partition on <dasd>"
screen, heed the statement in the Cookbook: "The disk /dev/dasdb1 will be
used in a logical volume. Select "Do not format partition" and "Do not
mount partition". I believe this will prevent the 4010 error.

Hope this helps.
