Bug Description
If you use --raw and LVM volume the virtual machine is created fine, but it doesn't boot.
Bochs BIOS screen says no harddisk is found.

[18:26:35] <soren> moo---: I implemented and tested it. It worked for me.
[18:27:43] <moo---> soren: http://
[18:27:52] <moo---> works fine if I remove --raw
[18:28:54] <soren> I don't see the error?

[18:39:03] <nijaba> once it has been confirmed, obviously
[18:39:03] <moo---> I assumed it's a logical volume -> it will get formatted in any case -> there can't be existing data
[18:39:28] <nijaba> moo---: you assume right
