Then put it in the subject line, instead of If you need more than 16 paritions on your SATA drive, this might work do If you need more than 16 paritions on your SATA drive, kpartx might work or something similar, so an archive subject search can turn it up. The million dollar question, is can the SUSE YaST installer use a >15 kpartx/dm partition on SATA as a / target? If it can, there should be no need to avoid upgrading older systems to newer ones that only have SATA, which is what those of us using many partitions have been needing to do. #2, if #1 is yes, is can the YaST installer do it all by itself? -- "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
