------- Comment #7 from rrouch@xxxxxxxxx 2007-01-07 11:39 MST -------
I've run some more tests while retrieving a y2logs set for you, and have found
the following and attached the following files:

Situation 1:
Raid Configuration: 465.8GB RAID0 striped over 4 disks, named RAID0. Also, a
232.9GB RAID10 over the same 4 disks, named RAID10
Problems: RAID10 partition only reports ~116GB, cannot create partitions on
RAID10.
Log: y2logs1.tgz

Situation 2:
Raid Configuration: 465.8GB RAID10 over 4 disks, named RAID10
Problems: Could not create partitioning proposal, unable to create partitions
on RAID10, RAID10 only reports 232.9GB
Log: y2logs2.tgz

Situation 3:
Raid Configuration: 465.8GB RAID10 over 4 disks, named Volume0
Problems: Only able to see 232.9GB
Logs: y2logs3.tgz

Situation 4:
Raid Configuration: 465.8GB RAID0 striped over 4 disks, named Volume0. Also,
another 465.7GB RAID0 over the same 4 disks, named Volume1
Problems: Unable to create partitions on Volume1.
Logs: y2logs4.tgz

I think what I have discovered is actually three related but separate problems
in using Yast2 and either DMRaid or the ICH8R controller:

1. Yast2 Does not like to make partitions on the second raid array in an Intel
Matrix RAID array.
2. Yast is incorrectly reporting the size of RAID10 partitions.
3. Yast does not like partitions named RAID10.

I'm also including an hwinfo dump because something tells me ou might need it.
If there's anything else you need or want me to try, please let me know.

Note: Sorry for being a little slow with these, but this is actually my new
personal machine at home, so I'm only able to work on these problems after the
business day is over.

Thanks!
