does "harddrive --partition" support a LVM partition

Hi,

I read the following about "harddrive" kickstart option.
"
harddrive

Install from a Red Hat installation tree on a local drive,
which must be either vfat or ext2.

--biospart=

BIOS partition to install from (such as 82).

--partition=

Partition to install from (such as, sdb2).

--dir=

Directory containing the RedHat directory of the
installation tree.

For example:

harddrive --partition=hdb2 --dir=/tmp/install-tree

"

Does anyone can tell whether "--partition" option have support to take
Logical Volume?
I have my Linux distribution to upgrade to on a LV "lv_upgrade_image"
which is on a VG "vg_for_upgrade"
So, I would be very happy if I could use something like below:
"harddrive --partition="vg_for_upgrade/lv_upgrade_image" --dir=/somedir"
Any suggestion or pointers in this regard is very much appreciated.

Regards,

No, installing from hard drive doesn't support LVM either in Anaconda or in Kickstart. See the Installation Guide: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/instal...harddrive.html
