Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and processes to support hard drive installation of an operating system from a logical volume partition. An initial volatile memory disk is extracted from an operating system (OS) installation image. A logical volume binary and shared libraries are added to the extracted initial volatile memory disk and then executed. Executing the logical volume binary and the shared libraries modifies a process performed by an OS installation application. The extracted initial volatile memory disk is then repackaged into a modified initial volatile memory disk.
