I ran into this problem when trying to install SuSE SLES 8 x86 (32 bit)
on my system. At the section where I was trying to do initial disk
partitioning, it presented my big RAID as having a negative number of
blocks.
But my problems also showed up after installing the 64 bit version of
SLES 8; as I explained before.
