This happened in 11.0 and 11.1, have not been able to test it in 11.2 but I am reporting both for future reference and in case it still exist in 11.2 and to prevent it in future releases. I do not feel the bug as 'critical' but it does lead to data loss, so I have selected Major, as a mid-point. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up a drive with two or more partitions 2. Place a copy of the openSUSE ISO dvd in one of the partitions 3. Boot from physical dvd image 4. Manually mount the other patition 5. Select such iso as an installation repo 6. Continue installation using the other partition as target. 7. After rebook, all data on the encrypted partition will be lost, in fact, the partition table is lost some times. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
