Been having problems installing Suse 9.1 on a box this morning, (was running Suse 8.2 quite happily up to now). The install is a complete wipe and reparition instead of an upgrade. I have two disks I want to mirror using linux software raid and the installer seems to cope with that ok. I then try to format the md0 device thus created. Using XFS the formating does not appear to give any errors but the installer cannot mount the filesystem, (a kernel error is displayed on another console). I'm trying (yet) again using reiserfs and so far seems ok. I was wondering if anybody else has seen this?

Thsi has been reported here many times. the fix is at: http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2004/04/91_xfsfix.html This does work as I have used it on three installs. -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)
