https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=736098 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=736098#c3 --- Comment #3 from Craig Rogers 2011-12-11 16:12:07 UTC --- I haven't yet allowed the openSUSE 11.4 installation to pass the point of no return, so I can still provide a few details. I'll have to proceed with installation soon, though, because this PC has a job to do. :-) The existing partition table has three partitions: a 100 MB NTFS partition labeled "SYSTEM" (/dev/sda1), a 454.72 GB NTFS partition labeled "OS" (/dev/sda2), and a 10.94 GB NTFS partition labeled "HP_RECOVERY" (/dev/sda3). No other partitions are shown for /dev/sda. I attempt to resize the second NTFS partition by right-clicking on it in the openSUSE 12.1 installer's "Expert Partitioner" screen, then selecting "resize" An error popup immediately appears, which I'll hand copy here: Error Resize Not Possible: ntfsresize v2011.4.12 (libntfs-3g) Device name : /dev/sda2 NTFS volume version: 3.1 Cluster size : 4096 bytes Current volume size: 488252633600 bytes (488253 MB) current device size: 488252637184 bytes (488253 MB) Checking filesystem consistency ... 0.00 percent completed 0.10 percent completed 0.21 percent completed 0.31 percent completed 0,41 percent completed 0.52 percent completed 0.62 percent completed Accounting clusters ... Space in use : 25664 MB (5.3%) Collecting resizing constraints ... You might resize at 25663209472 bytes or 25664 MB (freeing 462589 MB). Please make a test run using both the -n and -s options before real resizing! When I repeat this same procedure (right-click "resize") on openSUSE 11.4's Expert Partitioner screen, the installer proceeds to present me with the following pop-up, which, again, I'll hand copy here: YaST2 Resize Partition /dev/sda2 Size * Maximum Size (454.72 GB) o Minimum Size (23.91 GB) o Custom Size Size 454.72 GB Current size: 454.72 GB Currently used: 23.90 GB OK Cancel Help I assume that openSUSE 11.4's response is correct, and that openSUSE 12.1's response is not. My guess is that the resizing program has changed its output, but there could be other causes, such as the resizing program taking a different set of options, or just some change in how the installer calls the resizing program. -- 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.

Unfortunately the mount is read-write and that causes the ntfsresize testcall to fail. -- 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.
