Affected live cd media (KDE and GNOME) for 32-bit architecture. I've loaded (13.Februar 2012) a openSUSE 12.1 live medium (KDE and GNOME) for 32-bit systems, cd burning with k3b, live in run mode and the installation procedure start with live-installer. The "partition" menu point is there in "ide hard drive" then read the partition table to be incorrect. Existing Linux systems including partitions which are not recognized correctly, which leads to the partitioning of the proposal for a new installation is also wrong. In "ide hard drive" it is not possible to delete the button "whole disk" all existing partitions to create a new partition table. The button "entire disk" is non-functional, a manual delete to delete all the partitions will not work as well. I delete the existing partitions on the menu-point "expert mode" manual, an installation of live medium is still possible. Unfortunately, however, then the daily ran a s2disk no longer feasible because there is no swap partition to locate and use is necessary but for s2disk is. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start live medium (live install, and direkt install) 2.partitionmanager start 3.Create partition table 4.Choose a hard drive question 5.Button: "whole disk" 6.manual selection to be deleted partitions Actual Results: with kde/gnome live-medium (cd) is for 32 bit architecture not cocrect installation possible. Tip for affected: Up a working medium installations (live-cd for gnome and kde) is available, can prior users to the installation of a 32-bit live medium, the harddrive delete with tool: "gparted". But only delete with gparted, not repartition and reformat! The installation of a blank ide-harddisk works. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
