[Bug 343849] New: Missing hint for required floppy drive in YaST
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=343849 Summary: Missing hint for required floppy drive in YaST Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: norbert.jurkeit@web.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Customer I wanted to do a fresh install with / on a software raid. Creation of the raid1 within YaST was easy and straightforward. I was a little astonished that after defining the raid as root device grub was still selected by default as boot loader, but gave it a try. Copying of files started, but when it was finished I was prompted to put a floppy into the drive to get the boot sector written. Unfortunately my computer has no floppy drive and even if it had, I would not want to boot from a floppy each time. So I had to start the installation all over trying lilo. An early warning that a floppy drive is required for the selected configuration would have been a great help. -- 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.
