https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=353546 Summary: yast2 Expert Partitioner fails to create partition on disk with sun label Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: casualprogrammer@yahoo.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Beta-Customer While trying to format a disk, yast2 disk fails with system error code 1007, parted reports invalid token primary. After some googling I found, that parted accepts primary only for labels msdos or pc98. There seem two steps necessary: have yast check the disk label before invoking parted, as well as having parted give a decent error message. Also yast disk claims to create an ext3 filesystem, while the call to parted asks for ext2.
