[Bug 414324] New: [Feature-request] Yast Expert Partitioner: should not require mounting "/" root partition
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=414324 Summary: [Feature-request] Yast Expert Partitioner: should not require mounting "/" root partition Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: al4321@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Hi All ! Since openSUSE 11.1 will have brand new expert partitioner, I would like to request the ability to use SUSE's partitioner for partition hard disks for other operating systems. Currently it is not possible, because SUSE requires mounting "/" root partition. In some cases I need to install third-party OSes before I install openSUSE, so I want to use SUSE flexible partitioner to partition and format the hard disk, then install the other OSes and only in the end I want to install openSUSE. -Alexey -- 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.

But we could add a special mode with disabled checks. -- 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.
