Surely removing that line will stop the extended partition from being created, won't it?
autoyast will create it anyway.
I already have some partitions on the disk if that makes a difference. I do not want to keep them though, which is why I have the <initialize> tag in the profile.
remove the <initialize...> for testing too. They are not needed in 99% of the cases.
What actually are the different types of partition_id? I think 130 is swap, and 131 is a standard partition, but I also thought 15 was an extended partition. Also, what is 5? I have seen 5 on some examples.
don't care about that. partition id 5 is "extended partition non LBA". Ignore the partition_id stuff. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany e-mail: uwe.gansert@suse.de, Tel: +49-(0)911-74053-0, Fax: +49-(0)911-74053-476, Web: http://www.suse.de
