Dear All,
I read all mails concerning partitioning but none answers my problem. I have a single Linux client with one harddisk. The disk has 4 primary partitions: /boot on /dev/hda1, swap on /dev/hda2, / on /dev/hda3 and /home on /dev/hda4.
I would like to install SuSE 8.1 with autoyast2 and WITHOUT recreating partitions.
This is currently not supported.
I would like to format /dev/hda1, /dev/hda2 and /dev/hda3 WITHOUT deleting them and WITHOUT giving the size or location in sectors. I don't know the sizes of these partitions, nor the sectors where thay are. I simply would like to tell autoyast2 to format /dev/hda1 and mount it as /boot etc. It could be done easily in autoyast1. Is it possible to do in autoyast2? If yes, HOW???
Two other questions:
What exaclty is the difference between <reuse>1,2,3</reuse> and <use>1,2,3</use>?
What does <partition_nr config:type="integer">3</partition_nr> mean and cause autoyast2 to do?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
use will repartiting the disk using the space released by the selected partitions. Anas
