Then a proposal is created which includes partitions on sdd and the LV with swap. But e.g. sda3 is not present in the logs. Maybe you originally selected to create a proposal on sda and that created sda2 as extended partition and several logical partitions. That is the proposal I get on my test machine (which only has two disks and thus cannot use sdd but must delete on of the RAIDs). The proposal does not reuse existing MD RAIDs.

Maybe the RAID was in a strange stage and couldn't be detected. And trying to reproduce the problem is likely not worth the effort esp. since we are working on openSUSE 11.2. So closing as WORKSFORME should be the best. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
