[Bug 222492] New: Installation aborted due to mounted partition, expect correction possibility
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222492 Summary: Installation aborted due to mounted partition, expect correction possibility Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 plus Platform: i586 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: richard.bos@xs4all.nl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com The installation of suse-10.2b aborted due to a mounted partition, to be used by the new linux. Reproduction scenario: - Install suse-10.2 - When the install linux is up, mount e.g. /dev/hda1 at /mnt (I had to do that, to verify the partition table ((/mnt)/etc/fstab) - Proceed the installation with custom partitioning and assign /dev/hda1 to e.g. '/' and have the partition formatted - Proceed with the installation. As soon as the installation wants to make the file system in /dev/hda1 the installation is aborted. It falls back from the QT interface to the ncurses interface. I would expect yast2 to stop/interrupt the installation and give the user the possibility to correct the problem. After the user unmounted the partition /dev/hda1, yast should continue with the installation. This seems doable to me. This would save the user a lot of time as it would prevent to do the whole installation over again! -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Unfortunately currently there is no easy way for implementing this due to current communication between YCP code and libstorage. Additionally it is pretty seldom that an error pops up at this stage that can be corrected by the user, mostly error at this stage are fatal and would lead to failed installation anyway. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
