http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=950494 Bug ID: 950494 Summary: /bootloader/stage1.rb:propose_ppc aborts installation Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 2015* Hardware: PowerPC-64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Bootloader Assignee: jsrain@suse.com Reporter: ohering@suse.com QA Contact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- TW 20151008 on a G5. /usr/share/YaST2/lib/bootloader/stage1.rb:propose_ppc aborts installation in first-stage because there can be no PReP partition on a 'mac' disklabel. I forced it to return :none instead, and install worked fine. The bootloader proposed something, no idea if it would work. Instead I selected "install no bootloader" and installation went fine. I suggest to make propose_ppc less destructive. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Perhaps just our copy of it is not useable, so far I have not tested neither our pkg nor upstream. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I can skip this check for mac, but it is not full support as other requirements check is more tricky. Will keep it on my list and add it to new version after one big feature is implemented. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
