Hello,
The following works for me (SLES9), creating two primary partitions, one
extended and logical partitions within the extended:
<partitioning config:type="list">
<drive>
<device>/dev/hda</device>
<initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize>
<partitions config:type="list">
<partition>
<crypt>twofish256</crypt>
<filesystem config:type="symbol">swap</filesystem>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
Hi,
I would like AutoYaST to create three primary partitions and one extended partition with two logical partitions inside.
The primary and extended partitions are created correctly, but the creation of the logical partitions fails because YaST tries to create them _behind_ the extended partition.
If I specify the logical partition sizes with region_entry as sectors, everything works as expected. But this is not an option because I don´t want to be bound to specific disk geometries. So I can use <size> only...
I have included the relevant part of my xml-file.
Any tips?
Regards, Goetz
