I guess I found what is going on here, I will try to provide a fix in the fashion of y2update image soon. Anas Urs Haberthuer wrote:
Dear All,
On /dev/hda, there are 5 partitions:
/dev/hda5 /boot (32MB) /dev/hda6 swap (2.0GB) /dev/hda7 / (10.0GB) /dev/hda8 /install (10.0GB) /dev/hda9 /home (80.0GB)
I would like to autoinstall SuSE 8.2 with KEEPING all partitons, format /dev/hda5,...,/dev/hda8 and not format /dev/hda9. I use the following .xml configuration file that is very similar to the one in the documentation:
... <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <create config:type="boolean">false</create> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/boot</mount>
5 </partition> <partition> <create config:type="boolean">false</create> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>swap</mount>6 </partition> <partition> <create config:type="boolean">false</create> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/</mount>7 </partition> <partition> <create config:type="boolean">false</create> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/install</mount>8 </partition> <partition> <create config:type="boolean">false</create> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <mount>/home</mount>9 </partition> </partitions> </drive> </partitioning> ...It does not work. I get the simple error message: No space left on /dev/hda. I tried several variations with no success. Does anybody know what to do? Any help is greatly appreciated. If you ever succeeded in keeping your partitions, I would be very interested in your .xml configuration file. Thanks a lot!
