I tried it on another firestone machine with 17-Feb build. Installation is successful and issue not observed. root@ltc-fire4:~# uname -a Linux ltc-fire4 4.2.0-34-generic #39~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 11 11:37:53 UTC 2016 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux root@ltc-fire4:~# mount /dev/mapper/ltc--fire4--vg-root on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) none on /sys/fs/cgroup type tmpfs (rw) none on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw) none on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs (rw) none on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw) udev on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,mode=0755) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=0620) tmpfs on /run type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,size=10%,mode=0755) none on /run/lock type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,size=5242880) none on /run/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev) none on /run/user type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,size=104857600,mode=0755) none on /sys/fs/pstore type pstore (rw) tracefs on /var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs/tracing type tracefs (rw,relatime) /dev/sda2 on /boot type ext2 (rw) systemd on /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd type cgroup (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,none,name=systemd) root@ltc-fire4:~# lvs LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Move Log Copy% Convert root ltc-fire4-vg -wi-ao--- 893.54g swap_1 ltc-fire4-vg -wi-ao--- 37.69g Thanks, Pavithra Closing bug as the issue is not observed.

Select ext3 as root file system and continue. == Comment: #6 - Vaishnavi Bhat <vaish...@in.ibm.com> - == I see the following errors in the syslog, parted is able to create the partition but mke2fs is unable to create the ext3 file system.
