* Use some hacks with devicemapper to support more than 15 partitions. Bug 218122 is one such hack. We wanted to use it for the migration issue. It was not intented for new installations - for those, please use LVM!
I tried again according to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=218122#c18 'activate_dm_linear /dev/sda' as soon as GUI YaST installer gave me the language selection screen. I still don't see any mapper devices added to /dev, and it isn't possible to return to YaST to test. Alt-F7 just gives a black screen. :-( -- "It yet remains a problem to be solved in human affairs, whether any free government can be permanent, where the public worship of God, and the support of religion, constitute no part of the policy or duty of the state in any assignable shape."
