The first boot of the system was successful. I´ve installed xen(with yast2), which breaks my network(ath9k - atheros) , so the first reboot seems to be recommend. -> That fails. The message on the screen is "Error No active partition". The system is not bootable at all. I´ve tried it some more times. I´ve downloaded the openSUSE12.1 KDE live cd and start it on my system(live modus). It gives me access to the harddrive, so I can provide the logs. The hardrive/files seems to be undamaged. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install openSUSE 12.1 final with btrfs and no seperate home partition. 2.Make first boot(automatically) 3.Install xen 4.make newstart 5.

Your hard disks already contained a GPT and YaST did not change that. Likely your system would boot if you had a MSDOS or GPT with synced MBR.
I don't know whether parted can convert between GPT and GPT with synced MBR. Petr?
No, parted can not do it automatically. But I see two options: 1/ Convert to gpt_sync_mbr manually: print out exact start and end sectors of each partition, mklabel gpt_sync_mbr (wipes out gpt), recreate the partitions manually on exactly the same positions. 2/ Use gdisk tool from: http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/gdisk.html Unfortunately, we don't have it in the distribution. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
