#513 Issue closed: lvcreate hangs because it expects yes prompt to be entered during restore if existing filesystem signature detected.¶

Labels: bug, fixed / solved / done

If can eventually fail when doing lvcreate because it could detect an existing filesystem (xfs for ex.) signature :
WARNING: xfs signature detected on /dev/vg0/foobar. Wipe it? [y/n]
and wait indefintely for prompting an yes answer.

To fix that, in REAR menu, chose to edit diskrestore.sh and add

yes | lvm lvcreate ...

instead of

lvm lvcreate...

Please fix that permanently in your code.

Thanks.
