Andrea,
Here is the autoinstallscript.conf from my goldenclient:
<!--

Can you post your autoinstallscript.conf (you can find it in
/etc/systemimager/autoinstallscript.conf on your golden client)?
It seems that something's wrong when cloning your LVM configuration.
Moreover it would be useful to know if you're using LVM ver.1 or 2 (but
since you're using RHEL4 I think it's surely LVM2). Anyway try to run
`pvs -o pv_fmt`, you should see only "lvm2" tags.
Then it would be useful also the output of the following commands (in
your golden client):
fdisk -l
pvs
vgs
lvs

This seems to be a different issue independent from lvm. It's a simple
dd that fails. Are you sure that /dev/sda is the right disk? Does the
machine have other disks? when the autoinstallscript fails can you log
in the console and post the output of cat /proc/diskstats?
Moreover you can check if for some strange conditions the disk is in
read-only mode: `blockdev --getro /dev/sda`.
