SuSe 8.1 partition table problem
Hi list. I have a problem during installation of SuSE 8.1 Pro on a machine with already installed version of SuSE 7.1 with kernel 2.2.18. I want to make a clean installation but with keeping one partition untouched. So I begin with the installation, but when process reaches partition setup step, YaST reports that there are no partition tables avalible on my disk. I've tried to tell Yast to reload partition table but this made no sense. This seems very strange to me :( If I boot from my old system fdisk reports: fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 4462 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 66 530113+ 82 Linux swap /dev/sda2 67 719 5245222+ 83 Linux /dev/sda3 720 2025 10490445 83 Linux /dev/sda4 2026 4462 19575202+ 83 Linux But if I boot from SuSE 8.1 rescue system fdisk reports that there are no partition table. What may cause this sort of troubles? Maybe the problem is in the new driver for AMD Raid (my disks are under its control) included in SuSE 8.1 ? -- Best regards, Maxim Cherniavsky MTU-Intel, Internet Department mailto:maxim@mtu.ru
